Who was that?
For some reason I had it in my head that Bukka White played a Tricone, first time I saw one on an old D.A. Pennebaker movie I wanted one. Completely impractical, probably won't get played. It's 250kms away, Lori likes it and thinks we should go for a drive and grab it.
She's a terrible influence. Great video, saw this at a very tender age and it was super influential. Reminds me of the time I went to Junior's Juke Joint back in the 90s.

I don't even know where to start with how much I miss his music. Saw him live twice, once back in H-town and on his last gig in London. I still have the poster from that show at the Borderline hanging up in my office. (Didn't we see Kvelertak at the Borderline with Aram?)
There was a posthumous album released with Jeff Lang (Oz slide guitarist) in 2006: Dislocation Blues. Some really great tracks on that.
My favourite musician of all time played alternately tuned Dobros with a slide.
The world needs more resonator guitars. Trufax.
