...and Lonnie Mack, too

Pun intended?

Looked it up - Strike Like Lightning was the album - I remember liking it, it had then-modern production, etc. - now I would probably gravitate towards the original stuff.

Thanks. You can hear almost all the early stuff on YT. Ace Records in the UK did some of the many reissues of The Wham Of That Memphis Man and also released a CD a couple of years ago called Still On The Move which has a bunch of tracks he did for Fraternity later on in the 60s, most unreleased as singles. Some of those tracks had previously been on a double album that came out in the 70s. Not as dynamic as his earliest, and some tracks had a vocal backup group but no lead vocals, so there's always been speculation that Fraternity intended for a lead vocal to be dubbed in, either by Lonnie or someone else.
