Wow! The way you keep the rhythm going with your thumb while playing the solo at the same time just blows me away.

Fantastic.

There is a documentary about Lowell George on Amazon with some great Wolf footage. When discussing other musicians, all Lowell wanted to know was "Is he versed in the ways of Chester Burnett?"

Seems like dropped D in base, high E stays the same. Great groove, Im stealing licks left and right from this one, you got a hundred in there! Love it, man!

So, how can you speed up the video like that - and still keep the audio sounding the same? 😺 Realy great song!
