Here's a piece of Rory Gallagher having fun in the 70's, playing some Muddy Waters. It's long and worth it. The Irish Tour album version is the best but no video. Linda was supposed to do back up vocals but lost her hair dryer.

Here's a cover of the closer I get to you originally sung by roberta flack and Mr. Donny Hathaway. It's starts a little pitch but then it's On.
Roberta Flack was one of Linda's heroes but not sure she rode a bike.

In my book for blues, Roy would first have to get past Lightning Hopkins, T-bone Walker, Freddie King, Albert Collins, Stevie Ray and that's just vintage players from Texas it doesn't include guitarist from other states like, BB King, Albert King, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton. Here's a sample of How bad you have to be. Like Prince in that ripping solo, you "can't take prisoners". For good reason it doesn't show Stevie Ray taking his turn.

Yep, that's the place. Pretty much the nicest guys around. I bought sheets of cassette labels from them. I think there were six cassette "side" labels on each sheet, and six labels across the top for the edge of the cassette case.
They also sold me a used Rotel turntable and convinced me to buy a top-loading Wollensack cassette deck that had 3 motors, a white noise generator, and big slide controls, big stuff with smooth quality. One direction, nothing fancy, but zero of the issues you'd get from a "consumer" deck. They bought equipment and then re-did the insides, used it in the studio. I still have the Wollensack 8-track deck they sold me, used. Monster big.
They offered to build me an amp, but I didn't have the money. They used grey metal cases and the stuff looked like something you'd find in an industrial site.
Right before I left, they gave me a bunch of free old rack mount brackets, so I could mount about any piece of gear in those big racks where you bolted stuff in.
Years later, when a friend and I bought gear for a band to use, we dropped about $5,000 at Sam Ash Music up near DC, but things I'd learned probably saved me $3000 more. By then I was buying old Marshall cabinets and re-doing them, and another guy (radar tech) would re-do the amps with Groove tubes, etc. I stopped when I offered to re-fret a cherry sunburst Les Paul, and I think it took me 3 months to get it right.

Another classic Roy from '72 - anyone remember Evil Roy Slade? My brother & I used to laugh at this line long after the show (TV movie ??) was over
Evil Roy, a stranger's coming
"Shoot him"
It's a woman...
"wound her"
