What are you listening to?

Been lucky enough to stay married for over 30 years to a woman who lets me fish at will. So if anything bears heavy on my mind,
Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
A lovely day (lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)
(Lovely day, lovely day, lovely day, lovely day)

The amazing Albert Lee 1972

Heard this "Country Jazz" on the radio today. (I used to have one of those Magnatone amps :))

Shuffleboard Rag - Jimmy Bryant and Speedy West
"Albert Lee, a longtime Bryant fan, says, “I loved his technique, the incredible speed and definition in his playing, and his choice of notes. It was kind of country swing without being too far out. I just liked what he was doing with the guitar; I think it was more exciting than what else was going on at the time. He was getting this great sound out of his Telecaster when a lot of people playing that type of music would have been playing on a hollowbody Gibson.”
"Jimmy’s records never did sell as much as mine,” Speedy explains. “He got just a little too far out and over the people’s heads with his melody lines.”

Bryant was magnificent. And odd for sure. Not the norm
