God doesn't need to know what time it is.
Value of anything is a most fascinating subject to me.
Eric Clapton hasn't owned this Rolex Daytona for nearly 20 years. It 's probably been in storage since he dumped it and is expected to fetch north of $1.6M?
For that much I'd want his playing ability AND his stereo system.
Redd is a down-the street guy, as is Bill Kirchen, both superb players and entertainers. The Continental Cafe is one spot among many where they play. I haven't seen David Lindley here in Austin, one of the best players I've ever encountered live. Songwriters can make money; performers as you know, may make a little, but if a song really gets covered, you are clipping coupons, as they say. |
@djones51 ...well, I'll give EC credit for recognizing a threat of sorts that I like to listen to.....;) ...opening eq is 'off' imho, but what else is I guess...😏 |
Kudos for mentioning Kenny Vaughan-- very tasty player, indeed! You neglected to mention the Hellecasters-- John Jorgensen, Will Ray and Jerry Donuahue. Their "Escape from Hollywood" CD is one of my favorites. They are not just technically adept-- they can write evocative tunes, as well, which cannot be said for all guitar slingers. And let's not forget Albert Collins or Jesse Ed Davis, while we're at it. . . or Jim Messina, for that matter, who doesn't play a lot of notes but is extremely musical and makes every note count. Venturing further afield, Ritchie Kotzen is a phenomenal player who really delivers when it comes to communicating emotion: Check out his Live in Japan video:
