“Dimples”: What a great performance, best Hour Glass I’ve heard, though I’m no expert, Bob. Not just the guitar, but the vocals, and it’s not easy for hot shot white guys to sing John Lee Hooker (listen to Thorogood, or not, actually.) Here it’s a layup, assuming that’s Duane on vocals, too.

Well said! Duane really does a great job on this one, doesn't he? (Yes, that's Duane.) His intro to the Ludlow Garage version is "We don't usually do this one but I feel like signing..." it's way cool.

Love this version! Thanks for sharing! Paul Hornsby claims that he and Eddie Hinton used to play this arrangement of "Dimples" with twin guitars. Paul showed it to Duane...and the idea of harmony twin guitars. Obviously, Duane and Dickey took it to the moon!!

When I lived in Riverside neighborhood in Jacksonville, walked by that house every day and by the park where they played concerts.

Thanks. As I understood it, the owners worked hard to get that historic marker.
