Ah, so that's who Clint Strong is! On Redd Volkaert's DVD there is a section where Redd gives lessons. Just little licks, not the chords or anything. He says he stole a couple of the licks from Clint Strong, but when I searched for Clint Strong before I came up empty handed. He's quite a good jazzer, isn't he? I thought he'd be some country player.
I listen and sing Working Man's Blues every day on the way to work and at work. It's a Merle Haggard song, but this is just what it sounds like:

I don't drink, but other than that I relate to that song.
Already found the first link last night. That gentleman is such a classic. Nice suit and tie, well spoken, perfect house, clean shaven. The quintessential gentleman. I find him rediculous in his perfection.
(if that makes sense)
BY the way, my normal guitar teacher is away, so I'm getting lessons from this guy (playing the Explorer, his name is JB):
YouTube - MOJO WEBB BAND/JB LEWIS @ THE PINEY 12/03/2004
He lives and breathes the blues. I'm going to make the most of it while I've got him. He stays with me until I "get" the lick without just moving on like most teachers. He's awesome and so musical. It's the coolest thing.
It feels like a real opportunity to learn to
really play.
Family's great Chris. Really good. I'm Blessed. It's good to see you around too.
Wife got me to set up an actual music room away from the loungeroom, so I've got a new space for my toys and practice. You know, leave my pedals and amp set up so I use them more. Loving that. Playing guitar much more right now.
Take care,
Dave
