Art joined Minutemen just before we landed the gig at Pandora’s Box on the Hollywood Strip in late 1964. We went on from there to do two full Summers at JJ’s Club in Santa Maria California. Once the Minutemen ended (The Army) Art went on to become the drummer for Smokestack Lightnin’. Art has had a fascinating life since he left the music business. He is preparing a dialog of this period of his life and will be sending it along for this profile.
