dw, I did exactly the same thing in Edinburgh (holler out for "Country Boy"). I was slightly intoxicated at the time however and regretted it afterwards, since I rationalised that he was probably going to play it anyway!That band you saw was virtually the same band as played with Emmylou Harris too, wasn,t it ? Albert Lee took over after James Burton left, as I remember.
I am not one for saying one guitarist is better than another, but I have to say that in the chicken-pickin' department Burton may just have had the edge. Lee is a monster player however. Anyone remember Head Hands and Feet?
