And they did not know who Les Paul was or why his name is on guitars. They must not listen to anything before 2000 or 2010.

Randy also mentioned Joe Pass. A true virtuoso. Pretty sure the ladies don't know who Jos Pass was. Maybe I'm wrong... but I doubt it.

Terribly sad that Randy lost his brothers Tim and Robbie in a very short time within the past year. Still with such horrific losses Randy looks great . His voice has changed very little in 50+ years. Randy never drank or used drugs and wouldn't let band members do it either. Wow it seemed like it's 1969 in the present when he did the American Woman riffs on his guitar. Wow !! Those women missed out a lot in not being alive to see the 1970s and hear that music when new.

Would you have preferred he not talk about himself when asked? He seems like a nice guy and is deserving of his fame. He was generous when talking about other artists and proud of his son.
