Episode 151 - The Gretsch Billy Bo
Bo Diddley was a true artist, an absolute original. His self-designed guitar, the Gretsch Jupiter Thunderbird, with its classic car fin chic, is instantly recognizable the world over. Fortunately for all of us, Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top fame reimagined and reintroduced this one-of-a-kind instrument. Pictured here is the reverse version of the Gretsch Billy Bo. Enjoy!
Beverages!
Podcasting is thirsty work; it’s crucial that everyone involved stay hydrated. The following fine beverages contributed to the success of this episode: Ed remains in Palm Springs, and is apparently into energy drinks now. Down is Up. John kept his protein intake stable, while also remaining hydrated. This week’s beverage intro song clip, performed (mostly) live in-studio was Bo Diddley by Bo Diddley.
