Wow. LONG time since I heard this last. Possibly the intro music from one of those syndicated Sunday evening hourly talk shows that use to pop up on a few New York City commercial FM Rock stations in the early/mid 70's?

Was enjoying it until the (self-indulgent) skittery treble bit. My eardrums say "no thanks!" {#Confused}

You're the best Telecaster guy in the whole fucking world.Just shut up and play your shit,I've got the rest so fuck off and just play.Like I can play the backup Hammond B-3 part on an acoustic guitar off the top of my head with no notice?

I miss the guy a lot,despite his imperfections and being kind of fucked up.But aren't we all kinda that way?

I can count my real friends on my fingers.

Damn good thing I cut that fingertip off so I don't have to do any math about him, the dumb fucker.

That's beauty, boke.

Sorry, dude. I heard the first 2 notes and said to myself "That's Roy Buchanan".

Saw him once @ Springfield Symphony Hall, Springfield MA, ca 1975.

Absolutely fantastic.

I guess I couldn't find the Infinite rating in the drop down bar.

Right. I find it shrill.

A cranked Telecaster guitar can be rather shrill. But don't ya just love it?
