Another wonderful musician laid to rest.

I used to see him at the Texas Vintage Guitar shows. It was always fun to say or wave hello.

The loss of another great
R.I.P. Scotty

Damn...

Btw, way to go Rolling Stoned... the choice of music seems strange, what about some of Scotty's licks?

I'm a huge fan. Elvis' sun sessions were my guitar teacher/bible when I started playing, and I can still listen to those tunes every day. Wonderful musician.

Here's a little some to make it right, enjoy!

There's no way not to enjoy that... maybe I should have been listening to this guy instead of Clapton, but it's not too late to start.

Thx to the OP for the heads up, and a sad day indeed, but what a life he had!

Will this year of losing musicians ever stop? One of most influential guitarists in history, IMHO. RIP.
