Deb is Dave's wife Debbie.
I am not sure of either song as far as positions, but I
do know that Dave was really into making his own tunings,
has been for a long time.

I believe "The Deb" was written/composed by Magic Dave Therault.
I seem to recall that "Deb" was a girlfriend of Dave's... not sure.

The song appeared on the "Harp-L IV: The H Files" compilation of 
various Harp-L member songs.  I think there were 3 CD's and compiled 
back in 1999.

Magic Dave had another song  on the compilation, "You've Got A Lover" 
which I think is an original song by Shake Russell, but I'm not sure 
who is singing and playing guitar--its not Shake Russell.

Now I'm wondering what position Dave was playing on that song as I 
don't recall it being something "easy" like 2nd position.

Oh yeah... I really like Shake Russell's music !
