Nils Lofgren can play a bit...

Probably my all time favourite

He's a brilliant technician and has the melody to match - superb.
He also does guitar lessons which start at a very basic level and move up to the likes of this -

One of my all time fav tracks

Some tracks mean a lot when you're sixteen. Sometimes they mean even more the older you get.

nils

So what if he had joined the Stones as Mick Taylor's replacement, as was apparently mooted? Would the world be different? Would he have prevented them turning into self-parodies? Would his hips still have needed replacing?

I think it was in the Bockris or Booth books where Keith

is reported as saying "You want to join the Stones? How much are you going to pay us"

I got the impression he didn't rate Lofgren. Personally, I think he'd have been a good replacement for Mick Taylor but it seems Keith would rather have Ronnie :-)

Yeah, he inspired me to pick up the guitar...

and put it back down again.

There are some interesting

guitar lesson videos by Andy Summers on Youtube, complete with some of the history of how he arrived at his suite of skills. Sting might be a plonker but I've got a lot of time for Summers and Copeland.

I was thinking along similar lines recently

I heard 'Message in a Bottle' on the radio and thought it sounded great, better than I remembered in fact, except for the mannered vocal which got rather in the way at times - a bit of an irritant, as indeed he is.
