God doesn't need to know what time it is.

Ralph had one heck of learning experience-

Too bad Ralph didn't have the drive to stay with the guitar. He possibly could have developed into a decent player.

Lessons equal to that would cost a fortune! His posture was pretty convincing in some of those some of the scenes. Fun movie

 I actually saw Son Thomas play at The Tucson Blues Festival some years ago.  He was great.  The power, not volume, power, coming off that stage produced by one man with an acoustic guitar was incredible."

That is the sign of a good player. Holding an audience captive with just an acoustic is a gift.

"You guys are aware he is a culturally-appropriating, virulent racist, right?"

No need for "woke" commentary. There are plenty of forums for that.

@tablejockey You could have Clapton’s playing ability if you just bought a guitar and practiced with marginal diligence.  I would guess the average person hits Clapton-level ability after about a year from starting from scratch.

There’s nothing special about his playing.  As basic as it gets.

tube, The earth rotates @ 1040 mph as (supposedly, if you believe that) measured. Standard watch escapments measured 18,000 beats per hour, some modern movements moreso. The Tourbillion escapement by Breguet was designed to compensate for gravitational errors. That is A LOT of extra price for saving one second a day. They say time is money ... 😄

@tablejockey We’re not exactly treading on consistent-audiophilia-related ground when we’re talking about watches and God, are we?  I didn’t know being a decent human was “woke.”

This forum seems to fetishize a well-known, well-documented, vile racist who said some of the most abominable things while being a blues-music-appropriator. So he says vile things about people of color, then goes on to another gig where he makes huge money ripping off old blues music.  Pretty classy dude.

Yet, for the 10,000,000th time in history, here’s someone referring to him as, “God.”
