My first album I ever bought was Steel Wheels at age 12. I insisted on vinyl believe it or not. I wore that record out. The first CD I ever bought was Tattoo You. It’s the only one I owned the whole time I was 15. I bought Voodoo lounge the day it was released and obsessed over it all summer. I was 17 then. I still love that album. I remember thinking they’d gotten back to sounding like t

It might be wishful thinking on my part, but as I recall, a year before Blue and Lonesome was recorded, not released, it was stated that they had an album complete and were so excited they immediately started on a new one. I’m expecting an Eminem Kamikaze drop in the near future, if anybody knows what that means.

Keith has said it was probably a Tele but could've been a Les Paul Jr. You can play 5 strings on a 6-string but not 6 on a 5.

They'll be the real Rolling Stones when they get Bill back."(see: ) I have seen Bob quoted about this so many times, but nobody ever includes his following statement where he says he was joking. Selective memory is so funny.

QuoteMathijs Quotenonfilter I am watching The Winos Boston 93 DVD and loving the tone of Keith's Music Man guitar on 999. I remember numerous guitar magazine interviews where he sang their praises. Is this the last tour on which he publicly touched an Ernie Ball? Why? He used three of them from 1989 to 1993. The black one was sold through Ebay (but with a different neck), the white on

Check out his Pictures and Paintings album - superb - and his stuff for Sun Records and the from the late 50s/early 60s. But, WTFFFF...Justin Timberlake? Why and what for? He's from Memphis and has made a pretty big impact, like him or not.

It makes me laugh how sensitive people are to the subject of smoking. Keith can smoke wherever he wants. Isn't hurting anyone but himself. I work daily on the University of Kentucky campus where outdoor smoking is prohibited but vehicles drive freely. Lock yourself in a garage with a cigarette and a running gasoline engine and have your relatives let me know which one kills you first. I don&

I'm fresh off a weekend of camping in Indy, highlighted by the best show I've seen since 1999. Result is, I'm infatuated with Keith's Les Paul Jr (Jr's?). Does he play more than one, and if so, what are their pickup configurations?

Not Rascall Flatts. If they do that version of "Life is a Highway", I may miss the main act.

Why? Indy should be so special. It still will (steel wheel) be, but why would they choose Rascal Flatts to open the show? I gotta admit my excitement level dropped a few points.

I'd love to hear this. Can't comment cause, of course, I've never heard it. But, honestly, my favorite version, by far, is on the Some Girls Live in Texas DVD. I took my girlfriend to see it at the theater and we were both blown away. She is a fan but not as well-versed as I am. She said Jagger was even slightly blown away by the end of that song.

Ed Sheeran's new song will be the next big hit to pay the Marvin Gaye estate. Decent song, great guitar work, which is rare for a top 40 song these days, but the chord progression is 'Let's Get It On' for sure. I don't even know the name of the song but I've heard it a few times and instantly I hear "We're all sensitive people..."
