I think that is correct. The 3 x 10 Band Masters are truly secret weapons! Worth every penny if you kind find a good one. So are the original Magnatone 260's from 1960. Incredible Amps!

Quotetatters And Jethro Tull (eligible since 1993) has still never even been nominated. For the life of me I do not understand why this band has not been nominated and inducted. Martin Barre's guitar playing by itself should have gotten them in. Countless numbers of genius level songs in their catalog of work. Oh well, I just listen to what I like that doesn't mean anyone has to

Sound systems for live shows were in general awful back in the 60's and most of the 70's due to the limitations of the equipment. Pretty much anytime we were in the first few rows of a show the majority of sound was coming directly from the stage with the exception of the vocals. Best sound for ampliphied live shows have always been the small clubs.

QuoteMathijs Quotegeorgie48 QuoteDandelionPowderman Quotegeorgie48 The thing with Johnny Johnson is that he actually delivered essential musical parts to the songs, allowing Chuck to add (great!) lyrics. Lyrics as such don't neccesarily result into great (musical) songs. So Johnson/Berry (or Berry/Johnson) credits would have been nice (and decent) in cases. It's a difficult one, Georg

QuoteRocky Dijon According to what Johnnie wrote in his book (or told his co-author), he was on salary through 1973. After that he was just paid like any sideman or session musician.

I don't believe he ever pl
