A friend of mine, who is a talented professional musician and otherwise intelligent fellow, once tried to make the argument to me that the Rolling Stones’ music simple and easy to play, and therefore, not that great compared with others he thought were more complex.
I told him he was an idiot.

Keith Richards met the Devil out at a bar one night, where they proceeded to go on a 6 night bender. When Richards thought the Devil was sufficiently inebriated he offered a proposal… his soul for immortality. The Devil, in his altered state of mind, gladly accepted.

I see what you did there, RR!
You’re welcome a lot.
Got a friend that once had some Gotdam hippies living in the apartment next to his. He was on the night shift and they would play loud hippy music all day and he couldn’t get any sleep (thin walls). He asked them to turn it down but they didn’t. They told him “tough shit” that he was a day sleeper. Danny was not a man to be trifled with. He had some big old speakers and one night before leaving for work (shift started 2300) he put them facing the common wall and put on an Earnest Tubb album to be looped all night long. He found out later that they had to leave and spend the night with friends. He didn’t have much trouble after that.

Some day a young rock band is going to take that old blues tune from those boys, speed it up, electrify it, and have a hit record.
Are there any new rock bands? I’ve gone country.

Their relaxed laid-back picking and singing was better than 99.5% of the tripe that is country music today. It’s amazing that British rockers are better at the craft of country music then the vast majority of country music’s so-called Stars today
