Like fine wine, these musicians all improve with age.

[guitar789]

@downhill240 yes before they downgrade, see chuck berrys last live performances

[falling41fre]

Sows it matter? They're both good, 77yrs n?. He might too be around Mr.Lipscomb age. I enjoyed it.

[busessuck1]

kinda dissapinted cause i tought it was them playing together... still very fukin good

@ceepatton well they're old and they're fucking awesome (in fact they're dead now, i believe) so i'm going to go with they either stay the same or improve. none really get worse with age.

@jessupar

and, we can't really tell with both of these men..

[ceepatton]

@jessupar

Leadbelly's a good example too.... The original comment was "all improve with age" which i don't think is true whatsoever

[jessupar]

@ceepatton the musicians improve with age. the generations do not. listen to mississippi john hurt on his 1926 recordings, then his 60's ones - they do improve with age in some ways.

@downhill240

that's not true
