Ahhh- Peter Green. Didn't he do "Green Manalishi" before Judas Preist?

slaw - watched the link. Quite the story teller. I'm be listening to more of Dave Alvin for sure, thanks.

Today I pulled out a few cuts from Wishbone Ash. One of the first rock bands to introduce twin harmony lead guitars. "Just testing" featured John Wetton. Bassist who has played with Asia, King Krimson and Uriah Heep. 

Any Uriah Heep fans out there?

I listened to "Hard Road" by Peter Green, (headphones on YouTube. Obviously not the best way to listen, but I only have my phone and headphones on me). It's a great cut. I need to invest in a better copy.

Hey Nutty - Don't miss John Wetton's band, UK.  Quite an illustrious cast of players.  S/T 1st & Danger Money are good, I think.  Hope you will check them out if you aren't already familiar with 'em.   

re Peter Green...yeah, we got plenty love for PG too.

BTW - adding further to this threads "sub-theme", if you will, of stellar but under-appreciated musicians and bands...how about Leslie West and Felix Pappalardi?  Talking Mountain of course and in that regard I also think Corky Laing is WAY overlooked when it comes to rock drummers.  Check out Track 3 from "Climbing"...Never in My Life.  He is just ferocious.  My 2 cents.  

ghosthouse -

I don't own any UK, but I have heard it on LP when I was younger. 

Regarding Mountain, great call. It's been a while since I've heard that.
"Mississippi Queen" is on FM so much that the rest of the albumn often gets overlooked.
