   Tommy Shaw is THE MAN, and he makes that Les Paul growl. He’s got a style, and tempo, and a sweet way of sliding the notes. In my old age … I’m finally noticing the subtle differences in guitar maestros style of play and personality that comes through in their playing.

   Maybe a lick, a technique, a riff, but then nowadays who doesn’t hear other players.

   1. Man, Tommy still has the pipes!

3. Glorious. Wonderful rendition. Thanks for this.

4. That was kicking it good.
   I love Live from Darryl’s.
   A couple of my favourite episodes were when the Ojays visited, and Booker T. dropped by.
