Goodwyn was told his Gibson suffered a broken neck. He wasn't able to see the remains. This was my life. This was my baby. My baby disappeared.

It would be difficult to get this song wrong, but Blues Boy, his guitar Lucille, and a lady who likes to be called Deedles, get it right.

I'm not going to start a new thread for the harmonica. Whew! Roy Clark could play anything with strings. Johnny Cash played the harmonicas.

Stephen Stills is one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

Stills was often underrated by some. But I remember and still have this "classic" LP;
And joined with another premier guitarist, Michael Bloomfield.
And another guitar "hero" of mine, and most of my generation was Chuck, here with his breakout hit( and my favorite of his solos).
And DAMN! What he does with that single note! And it was a short jump from Chuck to.....
I mean, WHO does rock in 3/4 time?

Steven Stills was a fine musician. I really enjoyed his double album Manassas.
Manassas is the 1972 debut double album by Manassas, a blues rock group led by American musician Stephen Stills, released April 1972. It was a critical comeback for Stills, and continued his commercial success by being certified Gold only a month after being released and peaking at number 4 on the US charts.
This album was one of the last non-jazz albums I purchased and really got into. But once Jeff Beck put out Blow by Blow in early 1975, it was only jazz guitar for me for the next 25 years.

Speaking of Manassas, I always wondered why Stills never asked his friend Peter Tork to join. Stills recommended him for The Monkees, which were kaput by then. Stills asked some of his good friends who toured with him (Dallas Taylor, etc) and Chris Hillman of the Byrds. I guess we'll never know.

Stills asked some of his good friends who toured with him (Dallas Taylor, etc) and Chris Hillman of the Byrds. I guess we'll never know.Well maybe Stills did ask Tork and Tork discussed this with Taylor and Hillman and decided he didn't wish to be as driven as Stills; For Manassas Stills rented an estate in the county and set up a recording studio; All the musicians had to stay there. This way when Stills got a musical idea, even if in the middle of the night, he would wake everyone up and go to the studio. Taylor and Hillman were not happy about that, at all! It is OK to do that to your drummer and bass player but not fellow musicians at the level of Taylor or Hillman; Note my "OK to do that" comment is somewhat of a joke. These are the worker-bees of a band, especially the drummer, and I have always tried to treat them with MORE respect then the "leads" of the band like singers and other guitar players. E.g. I would always come early, and stay late, to the practice studio to help the drummer set-up and break-down. The singers (divas!), would just have to show up with a mic and would come late and leave early!

Well, going on with my chronological journey, after being immersed with Hendrix. for a spell, Blues started a resurgence due to interest from all those hippie white boys and British invasion bands that we started being more aware of white and old black blues guitarists. For the white side, we got more aware of this guy, thanks to John Mayall;
And who I did like(honestly) more than Clapton( as far as British blues players) and still do is;
And the along comes my favorite white bluesman of all time( and REALLY white!);
Who was also killer on slide.
Sorry for taking up all the space.

Not really meaning to hog this place, but to keep it going.....
As I was discussing young(at the time) white blues players, two who also had dominance in the late '60's were these guys who both graced The Butterfield Blues band
MIKE BLOOMFIELD( who also worked of a few Bob Dylan LPs)
And before he fooled around and fell in love, this a bit earlier member of Paul butterfield's band; ELVIN BISHOP

We interrupt your regularly scheduled program of guitar greatness for a brief message from our sponsor the Harmonica Channel. We apologize for any inconvenience this may or may not cause you.<insert mandatory guitar content here> "It looks like Jimmy's just fished that Telecaster out of a skip, minus a string."

Go ahead. Wouldn't mind it a bit. But back to guitar..... Some might go on about my going on about young white boy blues players and wonder.... "Weren't there any young BLACK blues players trying to make a name back then?" And I'd say I don't really recall except maybe ONE------- Shuggie Otis( son of Johnny Otis) Sepiatone

James mentioned JAZZ guitarists a bit ago. I remember this guy as the first jazz guitarists a lot of us "boomers" in the '60's paid attention to.(Mostly because of this single) But we got to where we found out he was much more than his "octaves" style. Sepiatone
