I got to chat one-on-one for about 10 minutes with Lonnie alone, just he and I on his tour bus back in 1988. He was in between shows/sets at a Cambridge, MA live music venue. I wish that I could remember the name of the venue. Anyway, it was sold out for both shows pretty much. He and his band TOTALLY rocked. It was inspiring to me. He was very gracious and friendly towards me. I'll never forget it. I gave him a cassette tape of some Blues songs that I had written & Recorded. IMHO he was one of the top 5 Best singing Blues/Rock electric guitarists of all time. - Piano Man Larry Hunt.
Perhaps you should add a note about his use of Magnatone amps with their "pitch changing" vibrato?! Lonnie got the idea from hearing the late great Robert Ward!
It's criminal to not have Lonnie Mack inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Without him in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, it relinquishes all credibility and true purpose... It's the same as if NASCAR does not recognize Richard Petty, Major League Baseball does not recognize Babe Ruth, the NBA does not recognize Michael Jordan, NASA does not recognize Neil Armstrong, etc.

His playing on his Wham of the memphis man album was probably his best. Listen to Suzie Q, Baby whats wrong and the bounce to hear his style.
Him and Albert with their Flying V's. I love 'em. Add an X2N to bridge position,coil-split and enjoy!
