Hendrix with Cox & Mitchell on Cavett:

This song was polished up a bit more before being recorded. I dig this rough version!

That solo is pretty groovy. Are those Dimarzio's in his EB2?

That appears to be the consensus. Read more about the ultimate fate of the bass (but no bass swallowing) here (http://www.vintageguitars.org.uk/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=1502&sid=53c81d78883967d1445bf64c97837018).

Carl Radle is hidin' in this first one & sadly, Duane Allman is missing:

Nevertheless...it's KILLER! I always thot Duane sang "Oh--- She's Gone" but if he did, Bobby Whitlock sang it just like him on this Johnny Cash show appearance!

Carl's on this one too:

Fast forward this video to the 4:00 mark and check out Dave Margen's solo "Runnin'".  Off of the Marathon LP and still on of my favorite solo's.

Now that's why I haven't bought a white Thunderbird. I just can't find the right boots to go with it.  ;)

Another Gibson here with a killer performance from KISS on the Midnight Special. You Doors and Pearl Jam fans might recognize the solo. :)

I posted this in the "Keytar" thread in reference to George Duke, but this one's worthy of a repost here!

Great playing by a young Alphonso Johnson!
