Tonight we all deserve a bit of relax time , The battle will begin again very shortly , While the Dream act has not came up , yet , You can be sure it will before this is said and done, we cannot give them an inch.

Before resuming our calls to action , take a few moments and consider this weeks selections
--------------------------------------------------

I give you the first really heavy metal song IMO

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGmkM4v9AaY

Mid 60s , a dark and evil song , a 17 year old guitarist , Brilliant work

--------------------------------------------------

I give you one of the top 5 classic songs of all time , Take a moment and just LISTEN. The doors were amazing in so many different ways , some think of Morrison as a drug addled loser , but I can tell you , he was way beyond genius , I don't agree with his life style but would he have been Jim Morrison without it?

The carnival signature sound conjures up something from a Ray Bradbury novel , This is the sound of a cool summer night on a Calif beach , been there done that.

I have extensively studied the Doors and their music , There will never be another
--------------------------
As a sidebar the remake by Jose Feliciano is every bit as good but in a
different style, A true work of genius in music is when others cannot remake a bad version

For anyone here that is unaware Jose Feliciano is totally blind , and yet

Eric Johnson can stand with these 2 any day of the week

(Taste, speed and feel beyond compare)
Guitarist search for this tone for life and most never find it

from the comments "fing christ he is awesome" AND HE IS

Eric is not only a master of speed , taste and unbelievable tone but he is master of guitar chording
