Back to tiger rag! I have had the privelege of seeing Albert Lee several times. he played The Weavers Arms in London and The THree Crowns in Stoke Newington (where i lived) with Hogans Heroes. He is one of the best country pickers around. His work with the Everley's and Dave Edmunds ( Sweet Little Lisa is amazing) is a true testimony to this guy's ability. He is very unassuming, and is a little like Brian Setzer. When you meet him and talk to him, he's actually amazed that you're there just because he's playing. After talking to him, he doesn't think he's agood singer and (seriously) ranks himself as an average guitar player. How can somebody with so much talent be so modest? Cue Brian - lol Mikey | |
