Mr. R boy this is an absolute treat. It has origins leading to Crossroads. Listen to the jammin here.

Nothing beats the sound of a 1961 Fender Strat especially when it's Rory's. No Strat sounds like this today however much you "soup it up". Ironically i never once thought that his battered Strat would outlive him even after being stolen and retrieved. RG should still be around today. Still can't believe the guys dead.

I totally agree, He was definitely a one off.. Rory R.I.P.

I love this song... Originally by Freddie King - check him out! Also covered by the Jason North Blues Band. We play live blues in Boston, Lincs every month.

One of the nicest musicians to ever live and one of the most modest. For me, this is the true meaning of musicianship, total spontaneity and dedication mixed with total knowledge of the instrument. A very rare combination today.

totally agree!!

[kraemer1986]

Cool...only cool.

little known fact: that was the first time Rod De'Ath drummed for Rory. He didn't know any of Rory's songs, but I'd say he played them pretty well.
