I Should Have Known It by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers. Cool riff and Mike Campbell rocking the SG. The old cats have still got it.

The Derek Trucks Band here performing the standard My Favorite Things at The Palace Theatre on 02/08/09. Throw any superlative you like at it.
Link: What To Learn from the New Angus SG?
Here’s a really great article at Woodytone on the new Angus Young signature SG’s from Gibson. It seems to me that SG’s are riding a little wave of popularity at the moment. Rawk!
More ‘freakin hell’ than ‘tasty’. The Who here in 1970 at their peak. Amazing energy, huge sound. Pete Townsend destroys it. Keith Moon is from another planet. Rock jam perfection.
This clip from Derek Trucks live at the Henry Fonda Theater in 2007 is just sublime. He’s playing the intro of Sahib Teri Bandi and segueing into something else.
Derek Trucks playing Joyful Noise. Nothing else to say.
A classic interview with Eric Clapton at the height of his powers in 1968. The formal tone of the interviewer is a bit awkward but he gets Eric to cover some good stuff including how he works his tone controls, dynamics, vibrato, the infamous “woman tone”, stock phrases and music as an outlet of emotion. Somebody please tell EC to play an SG again.
