Freddie King was one bad mother...

That is singularly THE most fucking outrageous collar I've EVER seen on ANY shirt (or could have ever seen -- in a THOUSAND lifetimes).

I mean, that's like 5 times wider/bigger/pointier/more-dangerous than ANY collar, in any bad 70's movie, or any Salvation Army store, or any bad 70's-themed Halloween party.

You must not have hung out in the cor-rect neighborhoods in the '70's.

Double-damn ... that is wicked :crazy::crazy:

Any idea if it is commercially available?

Yes, that is available. There are at least four Freddie King DVDs available.

I believe that this one is included in the Experience Hendrix release--Live in Europe.

There are also three Vestapol DVDs--

The Beat 1966;

In Concert, Dallas Texas Jan. 20th 1973; and

Live at the Sugarbowl Sept. 22, 1972.

All are worthy--the best is probably The Beat 1966, featuring Freddie's numerous appearances on a local Dallas teen dance show.

Having on one occasion been at a club, sitting directly in front of Freddie King's amplifier, I must say he had the most incredible single note sound on guitar I've ever heard.
