I've known and played with Junior since 1978 - he would describe himself as a lover of all things Americana - music, cars, you name it. Thats why country, blues, rock, swing, and surf music are all part of his world.

Just got back from seeing Jr. at the Ark in Ann Arbor. He did 2 hours non-stop. Best show I've seen in some time. Better live than his recorded stuff. Was called back for 2 encores. Great show. If he comes anywhere near you definetly make the effort to see the show, you won't be disappointed.

I guess the only thing I can say about the suit is, he is a throw back to Hank Sr. and Earnest Tubb, who both wore suits on stage back in their day. I think it adds class to his show. This video is a good representation of his (top Half)guitar playing, but it really pales in comparison to see him live. If you ever get a chance, I highly reccomend it!

In 1985 Junior invented a double-necked guitar, with some assistance from Michael Stevens. Junior called the instrument his "guit-steel". When performing, Junior plays the guitar by standing behind it, while it rests on a small podium/music stand. The top neck on the guit-steel is a traditional 6-string guitar, while the lower neck is a full-size lapsteel guitar for slide playing.
