    It was 40+ years ago, i first saw Blackfoot. They opened for Foghat ! I was in my 20's and was worn out from dancing. I was privileged to see them half a dozen times over the years. ❤

    A great musician and singer. But lets not forget the incredible Jakson Thunderfoot Spires RIP, Greg T Walker and Charlie Hargrett who together with Rick formed one of the best Southern Rock bands that ever existed! Ever.

    Rickey has played thousands of great solos with skynyrd and Blackfoot so he just lets the young guns take over……..BUT man when he decides to hit a solo you know he is still the bossman.

    It was so hard to see the difference in his performance after losing a.lung. And there's early days his voice was so powerful and he could play the guitar like no other. But it's wonderful seeing him still out there after the devastating surgery. Thumbs up to the old brother! Eternal summer to you... 😊

    Seen Blackfoot Winter of 1980. Amazing Southern Blues Band. They were A Hell of A Band Then with All the Original Guys. But Rick was the Main Guy. One of the Best Musicians and far underrated of All Time.

      Charlie Hargrett played guitar on the album(Strikes 1979), do you remember if he was there at the time you saw them? I always wondered which guys played which solo on Highway Song.
      Edit: Just realized Hargrett played on all their albums. For some reason I thought he was only there for just a bit.

    Ricky is my all time most favorite musician. I've seen him with Blackfoot 3 or 4 times and they were great every time. Never had the opportunity to see him with skyward but you can always tell his plying from anyone elses. I think he's an awesome guitar player.
