p.s. Was from the album “Giant Step”, a rarity when imported to my country way back, remains a favourite to this day.

@ you & Annie: – I don’t know nothin’ except that “Bacon Fat” features JED and rates in my all-time top 10 lay back and groove at the end of a phonograph needle.

Very nice, heard this is what Duane Allman picked up on and started slide with. ABB really electrified this song, but still like TM’s version. Even Taj Mahal couldn’t save that “Rock and Roll Circus,” it’s awful. Only video I’ve ever seen where every act came off poorly, and most were top-notch artists.

“Adequately Monumental” rendition of this blues standard.

I’d probably put it toward the bottom end of my top 5 ever, right behind LVB’s 7th but ahead of EROICA.

I want to quit my job and hang out with that bassist fulltime.
