I remember when I first heard of him.  He was on Letterman one night, not long after I was outta $tr8.  A blind, wailin cat.  He sat in a chair and played his electric across his lap while his band backed him up.  I remember how when it came time for his guitar solo he stood up and kicked that chair back out from under him and tore that guitar up!  Righteous tune too.  "Angel Eyes"..."tonight I light the stars above...how did I ever win your love?...what did I do !?...what did I say...to turn your angel eyes my way"!?  Really a beautiful song.  I always loved to hear that song when it would come on the radio unexpected-like.  The kid had heart.  Only 41.

pirate out.

Namaste.

If you would have justice in this world, then begin to see that a human being is not a means to some end.  People are not commodities.  When human beings are just to one another government becomes obsolete and real freedom is born; SPIRITUAL ANARCHY.
