This past Sunday, January 6th, 2008, two old friends who had barely played together since junior high school (over 30 years ago), got together in a living room with their guitars, and started sharing songs back and forth. One (Howard) was predominantly a rocker and played amazing guitar riffs reminscent of Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix, and one (myself) played predominantly folk oriented stuff. I'm sure Pete Seeger would have no problem knowing one of his songs was accompanied by some amazing swirling fast guitar riffs (Pete once said that he electrified long before Bob Dylan when he first played in front of a microphone). I did my best to keep up the rhythm when Howard was doing his rock stuff and it went alright (I still do love rock and roll).
Think if everybody that was fighting would drop their weapons, join hands, and sing a rousing version of Kumbaya while all the rock guitarists in the world provided a wailing background. Works for me :-)............
