Ok, but Lee was the best B3 player ever. And the drummer Frosty used to play an entire drum solo bare handed. That punk, right?

Got me thinking. I've only ever heard "You Know What I Mean" from him, but if you like him, can't see how you would'nt like Mott The Hoople, Ian Hunter or such. Similar keys and progressions.

Or early Springsteen.

Can't we agree Jon Lord or Booker T. Jones were the best B3 players?

Guess I'd have to throw Gregg Allman in there too.

All great players, but Lee was the band, except for frosty on drums Lee handles everything.

Yeah, definitely like Mott/Ian too. Mick Ronson was great.

I am really digging him. Just did a search on eBay for a CD. $29.00 and up! Snooze ya loose, I guess.
