Love the Hendrix quotes:

Saw him live a couple of times. Always amazing. Every version of Sugarfoot Rag he incorporates different Hendrix licks.

OH YEAH !
When I first heard him cop the Hendrix licks my jaw dropped.
Totally off the wall.

We also had the songwriter for "Highway Patrol" show up at local jam sessions which was a treat.

Yeah Junior absolutely kills with remarkable talent and whit. He is one hell of a player for sure.

Saw him back in 97 when my ex was quite pregnant with my oldest. I remember her saying that that my daughter was kicking through the entire concert - as we were very close to the stage since this was a very small outside "concert in the park". Funny thing, when my daughter was 5 or so she found my old walkman and Junior tapes and would not stop listening to him. Hehe, the good old days...

I think he had a pair of twins, dimed I'm sure at the time. His wife was playing rhythm acoustic too. But oh man the Hendrix licks sounded sooo good.

Inside joke - I should have listened to "denim wearing venom" more closely a few years ago , or Hong Kong blues... hehe

Hey Mark,

I'd love to see Junior and Greg Koch do a set together - Maybe too much of a good thing ??? :shock: Regardless, I bet it would be spectacular to say the least.

Thx M....probably something to do with my linking it thru my iPad.

Every video I see of him amazes me more...really enjoyable to watch.
I think any of us who grew up watching Porter Wagoner or Buck Owens were wishing they would break loose and do something like this, although they always held the line ;~)

I don't get out to the bars much any more, but if I run into Greg jamming somewhere I'll suggest it for sure.
