Just found a clutch of great Sonny Sharrock videos on Youtube:

One all the all-time guitar greats, in my book. RIP Sonny.

I thought you'd like them! I think we have the same tastes in jazz!

Anyway, here's another site with some nice Sonny Sharrock interviews and articles:

Where's the Cosey stuff?!

BTW, that Last Exit DVD you hipped me to-
