We drove up to Berkeley in 1965 to see Lightnin'. He played and sang mostly on guitar, sometimes piano. Around 12:30 a.m. the theater manager came on stage and tried to close the place down according to a Berkeley city statute, but Lightnin' would have none of it. He kept moving from the guitar to the piano while the manager tried to corral him and the audience whooped and hollered. What i remember is what's in this video, that he loved the music and was one with it, a deeply magnetic, genuinely soulful man.

@AnandaGarden ~ starting about 1963 Lightnin' had a 30 minute TV show Monday through Friday afternoons on a Houston TV station. He would play guitar & tell stories. When my parents gave me a guitar I tried to learn some of what Lightnin' was doing. That was very difficult because he had crazy long fingers that allowed him to easily span several frets, which I couldn't do. My beloved parents & Lightnin' are buried in the same Houston cemetery. And I will be there too.
