Eddie Adcock on ABC News TV

A month ago we posted news of the revered banjo-player Eddie Adcock and the pioneering brain surgery which he is undergoing to restore the full use of his hands and coordination.

Thanks to Sean McKerr of Lurgan, Co. Armagh, for sending a link to an ABCNews programme on the surgery, with footage of the operation in progress, Eddie's playing before and after, and comments from him and his wife Martha. The many admirers of Eddie Adcock and his music will be glad to know that he is in robust spirits and looking forward to the final stages of treatment.
