Ha ha. But I do like Rick Derringer. Rock 'n' Roll, Hoochie Koo and all that stuff. Yeh that was great music. It's too bad about the lack of newer hits but oh well, he had his day in the sun.

I'm disappointed with Rick Nielsen. He could have fit another neck or two on this.

I am disappointed with Rick too. Edgar Winter's version of R&R Hoochie Koo is 10 times better.

Wrong, wrong , wrong. The best version is the first, on Johnny Winter And. I saw them do it live at the Fillmore West. IMHO the best Rock song ever written! Ps, Rick also played on Edgar's version!

One of the best gigs of my life was seeing Rick with Edgar Winter at White City Stadium in London back in 1973?
My friend Glyn Baker’s father Stanley Baker organized the gig and got me a stage pass. Rick played a blinding guitar solo; his pick fell out of his sweaty hands and landed at me feet. All this made a big impression on me as a 16 year old.
On the bill that day were The Kinks, Canned Heat, Sly & The Family Stone, amongst others. A very new comic called Billy Connelly did a fill in between bands as well. Quite a day. The Kinks were my favourite on that day, even though Ray Davis took an overdose; he brushed past me whilst leaving the stage.
I got my first Rickenbacker about a year later….!
