You're So Rough,You're So Tough...


 AND WE'RE BACK!
First post of the year has been sent in to The Barn.

I didn't know that Rocket was on a brief break 
but sometimes a rest and recharge is needed. 
I did, however, want to share a 
treat for "the Barn" (and I know that you guys are 
taking a rest until the New Year, 
which is fine) that I think everyone will enjoy.
Black Oak Arkansas, Live on the Hog:
The show featured the (at the time) 15-year-old 
Shawn Lane on guitar, who absolutely 
shreds his way through the setlist. 
It was played on the radio in 1979, so the sound quality is great. 
The only problem with this set is it's just over 
45 minutes long, but man, what a performance.
Hope everyone enjoys! Blessings to you during this holiday season!
Thanks,

That "Crazy" Fellow

  3. This one is usually known as 'Live On The Hog' and came originally from the late Shawn Lane's own private tape archive. Incredible to hear how great he could play at just 15 years of age. The extended duelling with Jimmy 'Soybean' Henderson during 'Not Fade Away' & 'Race With The Devil' has astounding playing from both guitarists.
