  SRV!?  I can hear the T-Bone a-plenty, not so much the Kings.

  That's Albert.  And some pretty kick tone also.  I wish those
recording engineers had recorded The Paul Butterfield Blues Band.

  Freddie my fave King.  In every way.  Geetar, vocals, the whole

super like that he occasionally pinches off a genuine jazz lick in
