Jerry Reed

Now there’s a stone cold picker. There’s a great story of Elvis Presley recording Guitar Man. Apparently while in the session, things weren’t coming together. They had some great players recording but some how the sound was right. They ended up having to track Jerry down while he was fishing and have him come in to record the guitar track for Elvis. Otis Gibbs tells the story much better then I can, so if you’re interested, you can listen to it here.

Not real, I assume.

Those hands look like they are about to explode.

Taking lessons from Brian May, perhaps?

You can never have enough Joan Jett.

Interesting group of things hanging on that wall...in line with some of her lyrics.
The question I have for this pic is...who's room is it?
Looks like a pretty small room, kinda too small for a hotel room.
She's ten+ years past that being her parents house.
Maybe an early New York City or Staten Island apartment.

Joan Jett and Chrissie Hynde

When I see pics of her chatting with Deborah Harry and Chrissie Hynde, when she was post Runaways and maybe at the beginning of her solo success, I wonder if she was asking questions/learning things from those two older women (13 years and 7 years) about how to navigate the world she was moving in.

Jaco

Thanks for my new favorite Jaco picture. Don’t remember seeing that venue or him looking better. Or his hands looking bigger.
