@poptarto420 - that songs a staple of bruce's, but if anyone wants to know what The Codetalkers were about, you have to look at Bobby Lee Rodgers cuz he wrote all the original tunes and sang them and played the sheet out of the guitar on them. Also google "Herring, Rodgers, Sipe" - the band played BLR's music and kicked arse!! Neal Fountain on bass tooo

The Col. turned Derek onto Ali Akbar Khan and a lot of the Indian classical influences that are readily evident in his playing. I saw Jimmy play with DTB in Athens, GA on 3-31-06 and they blew the roof off. Often times it was difficult to distinguish who was playing lead because Jimmy and Derek sound so much alike. Plus, they have like a Duane/Dickey countermelody thing going on that is unbelievable. They never step onto each others toes...
