The best thing this forum has going for it is a lot of you know your music. Very cool!
I can go without sex for a few days, obviously do go without football for months but can't go without the music. I'm not talking about I'm doing this and that with music in the background. Not that that doesn't sometimes happen, I'm talking about a sit down planned situation with you totally focused on the sound. You have your drink, the candles and the incense. You are out there, in a neatherworld of your on making. The music is your drug.

As we all know we all those artists that we think are great but are rather obscure. Here is one of mine...
This is the original from 1936 or was it 37? Check out those fingers.
Historians were baffled at how he could play the cords he played, there was even talk that he had help, yep two guys one guitar, that was before that picture was discovered. Once his hands were exposed.....
This is an internet discovery, I have nothing by him, yet. They are doing an old Blind Willie McTell classic....

Side story...
My little bro (little to me) was into that scene heavily...he just moved out to cali...once in a while he'll call me...and say...
Bro- guess who I just met?
George Lynch
last time it was- Rikki Rocket
and he actually will go talk to them...(when I lived there I would never approach anyone if they were any kind of celebrity- just wasn't in me) and he said Lynch was really cool and said..
Man, no one recognizes me..I'm nobody anymore...but thanks man I appreciate it..then they shot the and talked music...
lame I know- but I found it amusing...
I have none of that but I do have...
Blind Lemon Jefferson
Blind Willie Reynolds
Blind Blake
Blind Mamie Forehand
Blind Boy Fuller
Blind Joe Taggard
Blind Teddy Darby
Blind Willie McTell
Blind Willie Johnson
Blind Willie Walker
Oh yeah...
Snooks Eaglin, Sleepy John Estes, Ray Charles and Sonny Terry were also blind.
We've all heard....ride the blinds, that was a hodo term for boarding a train on the side away from the station/bosses, yep, the blind side.
I like George Lynch tbh. One of the top tier guitar players from that era without a question.
Yeah, he still plays and once in a while he will be in Vintage Guitar magazine or Premier Guitar...
My bro tells me that a lot of those 80's rockers live where he lives (Santa Clarita valley outside L.A. --this is what Lynch told him- that they all live out there...)
kind of funny.
Love stories.
Me and some buddies were at a little bar in Hunters Point (bay area) back in my Navy days. Over at the bandstand a little dude is messing around, getting ready for that nights gig, then he did a few runs on his guitar, Carlos Santana, after awhile he came over had a couple beers and talked a little, nice guy.
Then there was that night at the El Ranchero in Hanford, me and a couple buddies are hanging out when in walks this skinny cat with hair down to his ass. Everyone is making a big deal out of him, they are wanting him to sing with the band, of course he's playing..nay nay well ok...Steve Perry of Journey fame. Prior to his Journey days.
