Rick Derringer R.I.P


Unfortunately, another major 70’s guitar  player checked in for "The Great Gig in the Sky."

Rick Derringer was one of those unique "did everything with everyone " musicians.

@immatthew.  Just do a search for Liz brewer.  She later go t married to a Dalton and changed her name to Lisa Dalton.

"Ricky Don’t Lose That Number!"

Thought that was Skunk Baxter?

Derringer certainly was on the "most wanted" list in the studio.

Great guitarist & performer.

His licks on "Chain Lightning", Steely Dan' Katy Lied, are among the best and most epic in the rock pantheon.....they stop me in my tracks every time.

R.I.P. indeed.

I just looked up those amazing speakers on HI Engine.  Whoa, those look FUN.  There is  a freshly restored pair for sale in TN for about the 1976 asking price.
