Thats who Hendrix learned to play with his mouth from.. I asked him at the 2008 SXSW when I was working backstage and also filmed him. He is married to Jimi Hendrix sister and said Jimi used to come watch him all the time and picked it up,

Harpgrinder, Wagman is back on the air at KJazz weekends 2-7pm after too long a hiatus and often plays Shorty

The man rips it up live, and I've seen audiences just lose it as he wades the crowd playing solo. He is a treasure--Guitar Shorty! Living and playing in the So Cal area these days so I understand.

I was listening Nuthin But The Blues about 10 yrs ago when Wagman was interviewing Shorty. He asked him if he still does the backflips an summer sauls (however you spell that) and he went on to tell the story of him hitting the edge of the stage and breaking his shoulder .......during a show! Shorty finally made enough money several years ago to buy a tour bus. He should be a dang millionaire for his mastery of the guitar and not talentless freaks like Britney Spears.

THanks Jamaal Forts....Sometimes people can't tell a piece a glass from a diamond. Thats why we get some old school macs that slip through the cracks. So many cats I am getting hip to later in life that have been there all along. Going to catch this gent at the Big Apple BBQ Festival this year. I am so excited. Great on the street shots. Good luck with all your hopes and dreams.

Smooth and slick.... Guitar Shorty... is THE MAN !!!!
Not to mention his nephew (Mr. Jimi Hendrix). Who copped a whole slew of Guitar Shortys licks and tricks from THE MAN himself.
