David Uosikkinen's In the Pocket

Rob Stoner has an amazing  life making music.  I met Rob around 2010 when we both recorded tracks on a Robert Gordon record produced by Quention Jones.  I found him to be a a genuinely good dude and super bassist. I found out that session that he played bass on Don McLean's hit American Pie but he also sings back up with the track. 

He was the band leader of Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue. Which was a  stellar band the included Rob, Nick Ronson. Howie Wyeth,Scarlet Rivera.
