I saw Gary Clark Jr. on the list. Fantastic guitarist, though I don't have any of his music on my Ipod. I'm kind of stuck in the 70s and 80s in that regard. I'm still kicking myself for missing Brian Ferry's recent show in Dallas. I played the heck out of Roxy Music my last two years in Germany.
I have a bootleg copy of a cassette of a televised concert in Germany circa '78/'79. A friend of mine was a musician and had some nice recording equipment. The concert had Roxy Music, Dire Straits, and Talking Heads. I really need to locate that cassette...it's in the garage with about a dozen boxes of cassettes that I personally mixed while in Germany.
Well, I missed Gary Clark. I know who he is and that he has a signature Epiphone Casino that I might add to my collection if I find one cheap enough. On the other hand, his signature model comes in a blue and, since I hate blue guitars, a regular Casino (preferably an older one made in the Peerless factory in the Republic of Korea rather than in Red China) outfitted with Gibson USA P-90’s would substitute nicely.
I’m also a fan of Gary Clark, Jr. I’m not really surprised that he’s a lib, though, especially since he’s from Austin. I’m also disappointed with seeing Josh Homme on there. He also plays in Eagles of Death Metal with Jesse Hughes. Hughes has stated that he and Homme are both pretty right- leaning guys. However, I think they are more libertarian than conservative. At least, they are pro-gun and get it about Muslims.
