1000 thanks, Gunnar...
Always out there looking for good reading.

"Back then, the amp volume was real low, too. When I recorded “Shake It For Me” with Wolf, we had everything down so low, and you could hear everything. You could hear everybody’s changes. That was the old sound, you know. We got to work together."

Just wonder: did they give Keith headphones?

Funny that story of dropping out using the pick. It is so great how those old blues guys communicate and affected to each other. Also the story of meeting the Stones in Heathrow 1964 is marvellous; Howlin Wolf's words to Jagger just echoes the strange accident of British Boys playing black man's blues and changing the course of international music. The guys did history! If the original grand idea of the Stones was turn the world's attention to this sort of music, they succeeded marvellously! By the end of 1964 they had done an important career already (and the story was just about to begin...)
