Oh yeh, what a concert at the Cocoanut Grove! The backup(!) singers included Bonnie Raitt and KD. Lyle on electric piano. Did you spot Billy Idol in the audience? Guitarist like you will have to tell me, but I thought Bruce held his own against Tom in this one. Rock & roll.

When I see something like this I feel the powerful wonders of music.

Phil,
Bruce S. was trading licks with James Burton. He did hold his own. Burton and his Fender Telecaster are responsible for the licks and fills on some of the old Ricky Nelson records such as “Hello Mary Lou.”
Peter,
As Plato knew, the power of music can also be dangerous.
