And then there's this guy. Another one sorely missed, what a talent. And what a song. And the guitar he's playing is possibly the world's most valuable guitar: the Peter Green Les Paul called 'Greeny'. Here is the story of how PG lent the guitar to GM, and then convinced Gary to buy it for...

'Roy Orbison singing for the lonely, hey that's me and I want you only Don't turn me home again I just can't face myself alone again' Bruce idolized Roy Orbison. Here are some fun videos: You know you are special when Bruce, Jackson Browne, and Elvis Costello are your guitarists, Bonnie...

Hehe, search and ye shall find. Here ya go: "Mungo Jerry are a British rock group who experienced their greatest success in the early 1970s, with a changing line-up that has always been fronted by Ray Dorset. The group's name was inspired by the poem "Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer", from T. S...

I like this, and he's got a Cole Clark guitar which sounds absolutely great. Both Ben Harper and Jack Johnson play them, too. I'd never heard of the company before today, but here's a link: https://coleclarkguitars.com/ Look at this one, it's a gorgeous work of art to my eye...

I kinda like Ben, he has grown on me but only in measured amounts. The coolest thing about him is how he doesn't appear to actually need a piano stool :)

Rick's latest:

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLZZZZZZZZZZZ Here is the classic on this subject:

Surf's Up is a masterpiece.

Here is a link to all the songs on this interesting album. Lesser known work by the Beach Boys, but I have always loved it: https://www.google.com/search?sa=X&q=the beach boys...

Love this song from the BBs. Less known than most of their work, but a fine song. Here is another from the same time period, from Carl and the Passions that I've always loved as well: I always thought this song sounds a bit like The Band

I think Rick made the guitar playing mechanical on purpose, because he is trying [both sonically and visually] to demonstrate the high complexity of the chord progressions in that song, and the guitar is a good visual medium, perhaps easier to show than a keyboard. If he were actually...

Rick at his best in that video, I remember that song well.

Make sure that you check btrfs compatibility with your bootloader if you're going to have a dual-boot situation, I don't know much about btrfs + grub or whatever you are using

I've only ever installed Gentoo once, and that installation has lasted all these many years. I've never had a reason to re-install/tear down or otherwise start over. Everything is fixable, and I mean **everything**. One great thing about rolling distros is the fact that you can keep them and...

And this is exactly the reason I prefer Gentoo to Arch ;) It is extremely easy to roll back to a prior version of a package [like Nvidia drivers] if the current one is buggy or misbehaving. I will add, though - the Arch Wiki is amazing, and in many ways better than Gentoo's. And for Linux...

Gotta love Steve Marriott. Amazing quality on the video as well. Here is a video with poor video quality, but Steve is in it with some other interesting celebs

Oh no, he's not Steve Vai. His identity is known. He's a virtuoso player in many genres that sort of stays out of the limelight but is well-respected by his peers, and is almost incredibly prolific. In 2015 alone, he recorded 118 albums. Yes, you read that right - 118. He was also the...

Speaking of 'Wild Horses' [one of my very favorite Stones songs] great version here:

This is great, and here is the actual video of that performance:
