Thanks for sharing Roger....Joe

Thanks for sharing Mike.....Joe

G GI Blues was my first Elvis movie too, yep, changed my life at 12 years old!

Thanks for watching Richard....Joe

Thank you Mark.....Joe

Thank you too James... yes what’s cool is even the Beatles had musicians that they loved like we loved them. George Harrison told Duane’s wife , Deed, that it use to be them standing in the rain outside Duane’s London hotel room hoping to get a glimpse of him:) Even the Beatles had their Beatles like Duane, Elvis, Chet, Chuck Berry to look up to. Best,Joe

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum It seems the greats are inspired by other greats. It's really cool to hear the early British rock and roll bands talk about their influences. From people like the early Delta blues artist to Elvis the king, The Everly Brothers and of course Buddy Holly. I try to listen to all of the interviews from British artist. I enjoy anything I can learn about the history of music. I believe music is very important to everyone, even if they don't appreciate it. Thank you Joe for your interviews. You are layed back and seem to relax whoever you are interviewing. That in turn makes the artist open up about their past. It helps a lot that everyone you have interviewed seems like humble, down to earth good people.

Thanks again Steve.... thanks for sharing this story too....Joe

You’re welcome Bill... and thank you for watching........Joe

Thanks for watching Mike.....Joe

Hi Johnny... yes ...wasn’t that cool!! Best, Joe

Thanks as always mVm....Joe

Thanks for watching Vay.....Joe P.S I just shared with another viewer that George said the Beatles use to stand in the rain outside Duane’s hotel room hoping to see him in his window.

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum Wow! Didn’t know that! What I find; and that goes for all these legends, including Elvis, Duane and all four Beatles is how humble and down to earth they always are. Amazing when you think the impact they have in world culture and history!

Never Sopped Listening to him Since the 50s.Ring Of Fire is My All Time Favourite,it still excites me at 74

Elvis dared to be himself.He really did some cool stuff.His personality lit up the entire room.. You watched nothing but him if he was in the same room with you.Even his backside stood out in a crowd.

@@vayabroder729 The Beatles were arrogant and smart alecs..not in the same human class as Elvis and Duane.Remember Elvis had impeccable manners and Duane comes off as humble like Elvis.

Years ago, Wildwood Flower was the first song everybody learned to play, at least in my neck of the woods. None of us ever got it down as well as Mother Maybelle, though.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts 1982...Joe

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum you’re welcome thanks for the great vids

Andy... do you still have your natural finished Gibson SG you loaned me?

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum Joe...in one of the countless dumb moves i made, i traded it for a mini moog which i had to later pawn to settle a girlfriends drug debt. did i say dumb moves? of course i had no business with a guitar anyway especially after meeting Sid Wolfolk LOL!!

Just wondering... I would’ve tried to buy it. Thanks again for loaning it to me in 73:)..... Best, Joe

Thank you too Tom... sounds like a great idea:)..... Joe

Hi David... no Brian Setzer is not. He certainly should be.... thanks......Joe

Sure newking... Scotty was a great friend and one of my first one or two interviews. He was the first musician to actually donate .... not try and sell a instrument to the museum. It was at his house/studio. It’s on our MHOF “Vault Series” channel..best, Joe

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum I'll have to check it out, love your dedication to the music 🎵🎶

Thanks again 70....Joe

Not familiar with that story Nick but I’ll try to remember to ask Duane about it.........Best......Joe

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum It's in the wonderful book that comes in the Bear Family Box Set- page 10. It's a quote from Al Casey mentioning that Duane was reluctant to move away from the thumb pick! So, Al Casey decided to make the change for him! There's so much great info in that book- probably the best for Duane's pre-RCA output.
