I thought Gary Rossington died a few years ago.

Man does this one fit. If someone out there could confirm the sun is out somewhere Id appreciate it.

The sun is indeed out in SE Texas. Just finished mowing the yard (first of 2023), weeds growing everywhere and general mayhem in the yard and gardens..

I hope this little ditty from 1966 helps you out a little. Jimmy Page played lead guitar. This is the album "long version". The song was trimmed to a bit over 3 minutes for radio play back in those days.

This is comes to my mind first when thinking about "Waiting for the Sun"

The sun was certainly out here today. A little windy at times though.

While I’ve always loved most all pre-Beatles rock and roll, Carl Perkins to Motown and all the music in between. Fact was I constantly bugged my parents to buy me a new transistor radio - big as size 10 shoe, and never ceased to bother them with it. My wife and I both love music, but can’t carry a tune or play a lick, despite trying.
But back to the music I play in the garage, usually from radio tuned to oldies station, and I like them all, But I stop everything when “Born to be Wild“ by Steppenwolf plays - then I need to ask myself why I’m not on my bike blasting down the highway, while playing my air guitar! I’ll bet you do too.

^ Jimi Hendrix actually gave Randy California his name. There were 2 Randy's in a band with Hendrix ( I don't think it was The Jimi Hendrix Experience), so he called one Randy California and the other Randy Texas.

Did Jimi show Randy how to play a right hand guitar left handed too?

Jeff Beck died.

As great as Beck was you might want have look at Joe Bonamassa doing Goin Down - I think his talent rivals the best living player “Slow Hand” - have a look:

Wow does this bring back memories - I had the 45 (now long gone) it stands out for me since I’m from Kansas City and moved with parents to Chicago in ‘59. Thanks for post.

Here’s Born to be Wild song from Easy Rider clip - featuring Peter Fonda rip, Dennis Hopper (directed the film), Jack Nicholson in one his early movies and some other random guy. If you’ve never seen it - enjoy…if you’ve seen the movie, I bet you’ll enjoy seeing the clip, if not the whole movie again.

I hope I am not the only one here who knows of the Dr. Demento Show...

I remember Dr. Demento

Do remember comedy records by “Fireside Theater”: edgy yet not vulgar humor?

These kids are friends of my oldest son. Local Niagara Falls band called JIN. They have all swam in my pool, drank my beer, eaten my burgers, and beat me at corn hole. Nicole, lead guitar and singer is incredibly talented. They are one of those bands who is best live. They are in studio recording their second album at the moment and I look forward to that. They cover Zeppelin, blues, and funk. You can hear the classic blues in this, one of their first originals.
