Oh . . . I like Suzanne's voice! She's very cute too, which doesn't hurt! Thanks.

@Wacokid48 You got right Kid! I've been listenin' to this when it first came out. Still haven't heard it enough! Ya gotta love the drummer's focus. He's doing exactly what he should - keeping a steady beat.

@07BBingham Hey City Girl! You're right about that. Not to say that there hasn't been any good stuff since then, but I'm 68 so I know what you mean. The early days of rock and roll just had something that has never been duplicated. I'm glad you appreciate that. Take care.

@TheMrfrawg More cow bell.

@homobarbie The thumb pick was plastic and the index finger was metal. If you turn it up enough you really don't need either one. Watch Toy Caldwell of The Marshall Tucker Band. He only used his thumb! There are countless musicians who don't use picks at all. Of course, everyone is different...

One of the most tasteful slide guitar pieces I've ever heard. Is Leroy Parnell still recording? Thanks for posting.

@hithr3000 Isn't that the truth! Is there a more unfeminine woman in the world? Do you think the "tattoo generation" will ever regret how ridiculous they actually are/were? I wrote a poem once which had a line that said, "all differently the same."

@XCSDeathAssassinSCX Strange name for one who has a fondness for the "old day" of rock and roll. But, that's alright. Keep listenin' child to the music us old folks grew up on. By the way, check out Eddie Cochran for "Summertime Blues." He was one of the original rock and rollers. But Ray is...

How clever! Good job with the selection of movie clips. The best, I think, is the first with Eli Wallach from"The Misfits," which was Gable's last movie. Thanks.

@Wajlonis You got it, Sean. And the best notes played are the ones that aren't. The really great blues guitarists get everything possible out of each and every note instead of trying to play 10,000 notes in 10 seconds. As players mature, they understand this.
