    I'm surely not alone in not loving The Shadows?

    Not the dancing, I give high marks for that.

    Just the melodies suck.

    Thank Christ Hendrix came along when he did.

    Every one of my favourite guitarists were hugely influenced by this sort of thing.

    Ah, Donie.....I loved Hendrix.......

    "In an interview with Rolling Stone, Hendrix was asked 'How does it feel to be the greatest guitarist in the world?' He answered, 'I don’t know, go ask Rory Gallagher."

    Imagine getting a time machine, finding the man or woman who invented guitars, and then bringing her or him to a Jimi Hendrix concert.

    Minds would be blown.

    Wellll, that's an outfit and a half!

    To busy being wild to find something that doesn't looklike a schoolkids space project, i guess.

    Don't know Grey. Doesn't look all that amazing.

    I'd still go, though, probably.
