There is not one drop of gypsy blood flowing through my veins. That Gustav
is pure Swedish. My daddy came from Sweden and his name was Carl Gustav,
which just happens to be the name of the current King of Sweden.
James Best told us that he does not play the guitar at all so when it came
time to film the scenes with him playing the guitar on TAGS he told them he
would be able to finger the strings so that no one would be able to tell.
And he was right. He said too how funny it was that his electric guitar was
never plugged in when he played.
He also told us the story of how he got his dog Flash on the Dukes series.
He wanted a dog for the show but they would not get one as it would cost
$500 a day to have a trainer for him. So Jim went to the animal shelter and
adopted Flash. He even made him a little dressing room.
He was just full of funny stories about his experiences.
