True story from the 70's 'cept I didn't put in an unmarked police car & Lonnie was shot where you sit, not in the knee. From the opening licks to 4:20 on you can see why he is considered in the top 5 most influential guitarists ever...over many others much more famous. He bought the Gibson Flying V before it was available & they shelved it.Sold less than 100. Later Jimi & others took it up when they reissued it years later. Enjoy photos of my city & Lonnie Mack doing "Cincinnati Jail" from "Second Site".

Screaming good electric blues from a hometown legend. True story, but he didn't get shot in the knee. He had a hard time sitting down for a while. Listen to Lonnie Mack's experiences with the police in 1970's ...after they almost ran him down in a crosswalk. Enjoy!

True story from the 1970's in my hometown. Lonnie Mack was shot in the rear end, not the knee. His guitar licks & power show why he is the unsung hero of blues. He is considered to be in the Top 5 most influential musicians. Period. Over many other really well known artists. Enjoy our homegrown talent.
