Very cool, Glad he Mentioned JSBE too, Those guys have that style and sound That's Just Diamonds in the rough with those 50's Tube amps and dumpster Guitars. It's that one Firebird guitar that looks like a 60's Starter Kit guitar that I love so much, It's all old and beat-off looking. That's where the magic is generated on top of those guys knowing how to get the magic out of their old gear.

Cool cool.

Jon Spencer...   he's so loose he's button tight.     nothing like Buzz's style at all.   I guess I'm glad Buzz appreciates him.

I never would have figured him to be such a big fan of Weedeater either. Those guys were awesome live.

 Cool list. The Trower choice sort of surprised me. Obviously Buzz has good taste in music & knows his shit, but I didn't expect that mention. Bridge Of Sighs is an awesome song/album, the only one you really need. Saw the man live once, back in '00. He still had it then, and I'm sure does today. I recently found a good live album of his, from like a year or so before Bridge Of Sighs, "Trower Live!" also on Chrysalis.

Nice props to Shep, Hazel, & Hidalgo too. 8)

He makes his love for Miles Davis' electric era work so public that I'm surprised Pete Cosey/Reggie Lucas aren't one of these mentions. I guess there is a pretty big difference in what they play though, so it makes sense.
