Or better yet, the new collection, The Warmth of the Sun, a more obscure, and even better collection of songs.

Great as he was, he could be beat - ever see Robbie Robertson schoolin' E. C. during Further on Up the Road from The Last Waltz?

At any rate, Phil Keaggy is the greatest guitar player in the world!

George also played on Dylan's 'If Nor For You', and rock urban legend has it that he also played the solo on John Lennon's version of 'Stand by Me' (it does sound like him anyway).

I've been listening to:
Tom Petty's HIGHWAY COMPANION
Paul Kelly (awesome Australian singer-songwriter)
Johnny Cash's AMERICAN V
My favourite Springsteen bootlegs (one from the TOM JOAD tour, and the whole NEBRASKA album live in Lincoln Nebraska)

Yeah.....I love watching Clapton & Harrison play together on 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' on The Concert for Bangladesh DVD.

Wow, I bet the 'Nebraska' album is incredible!

Yeah, about a month ago, I listened again to all five of the American Recordings - the best work he's done!
