Wow Duke..that made my decade. You've been my hero for 25 years. Played for ya once up in Turin NY 10 yrs ago, outdoor thing, we were the band in the tent after you closed the main stage, I looked up and you were standin there, be like you lookin up and T Bone was standin there..ha....Pinetop was also on the bill that day. I transcribed T Bone Boogie off your first album back in the 80's, showed ya, you laughed, said you never played it same way twice, turned me on to Guitar Junior. Thx for taking the time to check out that one take, whaddya got shot at backstroke. This lesson series rocks, thx so much for doin it.

Duke,
Are you using just the flesh of your fingers or any fingernails when you play Albert Collins style ?

Duke,
Great video of you with Albert Collins. Is that Debbie Davies playing as well ? How did you get the Strat to sound like Albert's Tele ?
