[@compucorder64]

Gotta keep that amp cool, in the Southern Heat ;) It's one of those situations where the hard hitting drummer is struggling to be heard over the awesome wall of guitar. This trio reminds me of the Jimi Henrix Experience - except Marcus is a _much_ better singer. And it's very possible he could someday even be a greater guitarist than Jimi, he's already definitely one of the current upcoming greats.

66 years old and I'd thought great music was a thing of the past. Sure there's great stuff coming out, but years ago when I believe Marcus King was 13 or so. I heard him play then and knew if he stuck with it he'd be able to become one of the greats. Well 20+ years later and he's been involved with every kind of music known to man. And his guitars are like and extension of his arms. There's nothing he can't play and very well done. The songs he's written as a young adult would make you think he was another great reincarnated. The man has what it takes. I guess some of these city kids get home from school and the game boy or TV is the babysitter. He had his Dads old vinyl records and a guitar to keep him company.
