in the early 70's, friends thought I was kidding when I said I thought they were really good.

Most had them written off as a top40 band due to the explosion of new music outlets on FM radio. At that time there was peer pressure to side with AM vs FM.

Doc, it's been decades. Any particular album(s) I should revisit?

SRV - March 2, 1986 - Neal Blaisdell Center, Honolulu, HI

Sadly, only saw Stevie once too. I was at this show and if this wasn't the loudest damn concert I ever went to, then it would be a close second. Beck, Bogert and Appice would be the other show that left my ears ringing for days.

Saw SRV and Jeff Beck in late 1989. It was the 7th and last time I saw Stevie. He was back in June 1990, but I didn't want to do an outdoor venue in Houston in June. Fingered he'd be back soon....

The Fire Meets the Fury Tour. Which show did you catch? They took turns opening / headlining and usually jammed together at the end.

Wish they came to Hawaii. 😞

I like them all to be honest...been years since I'd heard them and with my jukebox a tune came on and that got we wanting to listen to a whole album...Can never go wrong with "311" though...solid all the way through. Great going to the beach or hanging by the pool music.

never saw either band, but I Think She Likes Me is as cool as it gets...pretty typical of their low-fi sound with strong blues.
