Thanks Denny,
I have resisted lifting licks from Ry Cooder...but some do seep in there

Here is a wee quote to keep us all going ...

"I practiced twelve hours a day, every day, until my fingers were bleeding, trying to get the same sound as Elmore James. This went on for weeks and weeks, and finally someone told me, 'He plays with a slide.'"

- Robbie Robertson, at the 1992 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony honoring Elmore James


...play it..I just hit the damn thing ...
