Didn't there used to be a Blues Forum?

Anyway, I came across Hubert Sumlin playing a Jetglo 360/6 with Howlin Wolf.

Sounds nice and bluesy.

Yup, there was a blues forum once upon a time. And yeah, this vid you've posted only confirms my suspicion, Ricks can do anything. Thanks for posting this. It was a real treat.

The link was sent to me by John Hoffman of the Micronesia Blues Society here in Guam who knows I like RICs. I even played my Jetglo 360/6 with the MBS on jam night but I'm afraid I didn't come close to sounding as sweet as Hubie. That's a classic piece of celluoid there!
