...At least.....for me....
25 years ago today, SRV died in a helicopter crash after performing at a concert in East Troy Wisconsin. The music that would have, could have been made by him these last 25 years, we'll never know. But generations to come still have his legacy and catalog of great performances to reflect on for enjoyment and inspiration.
I remember talking with my brother years ago when he was living in Houston, and he told me about this unknown crazy guitar player doing Hendrix's style blues at a local watering hole. He saw him a few more times around town at small venues til he hit it big. What fun that would have been, tipping back iced cold Lone Stars with shots of tequila listening to SRV at some cowboy club. Maybe getting into a fight or two.
I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it. Mark Twain
Sometime around '80 me and a friend were in Austin checking out clubs on Congress Ave. As we were walking down the sidewalk, we heard this guitar player about a block away. The sound was coming from the Continental Club. We couldn't get in because it was packed ( This club might hold 70-100 people at best..). I thought Hendrix came back from the dead...and better than he was alive!
I managed to squirrel my way to the door to look in. It's this skinny white kid. And loud, I mean really loud. I was hooked and a SRV fan forever at that instant. I got to see him several more times before he got huge.

Gary Richrath, lead guitarist with REO Speedwagon died this last Sunday at the age of 65....R.I.P. Gary...
Today is the anniversary of Jimi Hendrix joining the "27 Club". The name was coined from the death of several popular musicians between '69 and '71 who died at the age of 27. ( Jimi, Janis Joplin, Brian Jones of the Stones and Jim Morrison of the Doors).
This is the song that supposedly made Eric Clapton walk off the stage, shaking. When Jimi 1st went to London, he went to a Cream concert and asked to jam with Clapton. ( unheard of at the time..) Clapton considered "Killing Floor" a very difficult song. ( watching this only video I could find live, I don't know what *spooked* Clapton..) But here it is...R.I.P. Jimi...

35 years ago today, John Bonham passed away from alcohol poisoning. Some claim him to be the best rock drummer of his time ( I pick Keith Moon). Here's him playing "Moby Dick" live in '70. Warning: If you don't like drum solo's I suggest you pass this one.
R.I.P. John..

Please go here and vote for your nominee(s) for entry into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. (Please vote for Yes!)
http://rockhall.com/voting/2016-rock...nominees-vote/
Oh, they are killing me slowly. It's called the Rock and Roll Hall of Frame. Deep Purple, undeniably one of the best touring rock bands from the 60's and 70's. Machine Head, one of the greatest albums of it's generation. Ian Gillian, arguably one of the best rock vocalist since Elvis and he took Ozzie's place in Black Sabbath. In the Guinness book of records for one of the loudest bands. These are the credentials of Rock and Roll.
Their competition this year are great rock bands and artists like; Janet Jackson, Chic, NWA, The Spinners, Chaka Khan (where's Rufus)
In the immortal words of, Sergeant Roger Murtaugh, " I'm too old for this s$#*"

With Jon Anderson out of the band and Chris Squire passed away, Yes being inducted at long last would make me more sad than excited.
