you know this is obscure

but there was this fellow named cosmo verricho (sp?) on the forum years back-nice english fellow i am certain

he recorded Red House on the first LP forum CD

truly -his tone was just incredible-might have had to do too with some very juicy old stock tubes in his marshall -or perhaps his 59'

This always causes a ruckus on here but :wah ………………… Green claimed he used a Strat on Albatross – though in the old film clip he sports the LP.

Don’t know what is correct but it’s a beautiful tone non-the-less

and you know i always thought he played it on a ES 175-i cant recall where but im certain i saw this-perhaps it was a live version

Another good one is Barry Bailey of ARS.Check out his two solos from their version of Spooky off the Dog Days album.Honk,squank,a little jazz riffage, some nice rhythm, he does it all.
