Its just my favorite one...he put out a bunch of albums in the 70's, they were actually a day or two sessions at a studio and he would release it as a new album. Check the cd out- it is great! Big Joe Rides Again is my other favorite- 1959. His other releases from the 70's were ok, but "The Midnight Special" cd is awesome.

The trouble with putting a list of music together is that there are so many catagories of music.

Rock and roll, acid rock, blues, delta blues, electric blues, pop, bubblegum, soul, R&B, classical, Country & Western, country rock, rap (rhymes with crap for a reason), easy listing, etc.

People confuse the types.

LOL--I actually like much of the new stuff as she filters it for me. And, she likes a lot of my old stuff, so it sorta works out...

Crosby, Still and Nash are rockers!?! I thought they were more of a folk bank.

I would add Bo Diddley and his protege, George Thoroughgood. Jerry Lee Lewis too. I guess Stevie Ray Vaughan is not so much a rock and roll as an R&B/blues guy.

Anybody who can make a list like that and put Cobains name on and leave out Duane Allman obviously has his head up his backside.

Well, I confess to seeing a few episodes of American Idol, so I can't be too snooty here.

Duane Allman had a very short career. But he was something.

Had he lived, I have little doubt he would now be regarded as one of the top three rock guitarists ever.
