We were all committed in one way or another. How many demonstrations did we do to get Pete Seeger on TV? It was all part of the view that America should change. We didn’t sing On Top of Old Smokey because it was a great song, we sang it because we wanted change - Sam Charters, http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/more-than-just-folk-a-fond-look-back-at-early-60s-new-york-from-those-who-were-there/2013/12/19/db5eae50-6356-11e3-a373-0f9f2d1c2b61_story.html

I just saw this pic for the first time recently, it's a beaut. I believe it's this early shot of BB King with a Tele.
I believe it's this early shot of BB King with a Tele. I think you're right. A shop owner of my local guitar center told me a story about BB King once. He (BB King) came to the center one day, with a complete entourage, and tried out some guitars. He played various brands and a telecaster too. Now a telecaster sounds totally different than a gibson 335. The guy told me he could hardly hear any difference in tone when BB played all those guitars. I guess in the end it's all in your fingers not in material. Hey harry
Yes, that's BB King. It's a postcard my wife sent me when she was in Mississippi last year, hitting a few sites on the blues trail. I have a few of them I put up for the video. Somewhere I have a bunch of images I cut out of those big cardboard rectangles CDs used to come in of the Piedmont guys. The ones I used were just handy. Pages: [1] Go Up
