in music history today, this is the 50th anniversary of the LP record format. 33.3 rpms allowed records to compact more music into a record than ever before.

You know his signature yellow Strat? He named it Lenny, after his wife. The song of the same name was a song he wrote not long after he got the guitar (his friends + wife pooled their money together to buy him that Strat from a pawn shop), when he couldn't sleep. His wife woke up while he was playing, and he named the song after her.

The more you know, indeed.

Yup! 'Burned the copies this w/e.
I don't expect it will become your favorite album, I know it's not mine, but it is a piece of music history that anyone interested in the Blues should be familiar with. You showed an interest. 'Rare in someone so young.

The Boss - Backstreets

That beings said, time for some Prog:
