Veteran performers are dying off, and new acts simply aren't emerging on the national scene.

I basically sat down for a month, with all the Sun stuff I could find and just picked out my favorites. I didn't think that they were indicative of '54 to '57, although I tried to stay within that period.

My D'Angelico is a jazz archtop guitar. That guitar was made for Glenn Miller's guitar player in 1939. It's a '39 D'Angelico New Yorker.

People out there maybe know who Junior Parker is and some of those Sun Records blues guys.

There's a fine line between pleasure and pain. Love me like a ball and chain.

It's really funny, I think to myself... I've got my same guitar and amp, it's just a bigger room now! Some things don't change.

I thought it would be cool to take flat-picking and put it in overdrive. I thought it would bend the ear.
