Thanks for the correction Brian. Sadly the Stones have not been the same since his departure.
The Mick Taylor era of the Stones is their brightest moment. They've been limping along ever since he quit. Then again, they're in better financial shape than Taylor is so take that FWIW.

BeBop Deluxe "No Trains to Heaven" One of my favorites. Not many have heard of this band from the 70's. Bill Nelson is the guitarist/lead singer.
I was fishing for striped bass from shore one night in the mid 70's and a beachfront mansion had a large party going on at the time with a live band. BeBop Deluxe was the band. Surprised anyone else remembered them.
Jeeze, I can't believe this one totally skipped my mind. One of my all time favorites.

MojoHand; Thank you for the thread and the fine listening it's provided on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Thanks to those who've contributed here as well.
I'd honestly never heard of this chap until someone else posted a video of him here at the 'Fire.
Anyway, before I managed to rearrange the fingers on my left hand in a table saw 9 years ago I used to play a little bit. I've got to say though that I'd never seen or heard anything like Danny Gatton could do then or since. May he RIP.
Thanks again for the thread and all the best in the upcoming week.
