if y\'all haven\'t had a chance to hear the one of the greatest unknown blues rock players ever, here\'s your chance. he lived a drunken, tragic life that probably was a fairly direct result of turning own the rolling stones when they offered him brian jones\' spot. however, he didn\'t want to be a part of a band, he wanted to be the star. and while he never really made it to celebrity, he certainly had the chops to sustain his ego!

Thanks for the heads up, but unfortunately I have never been able to get an account there. :pout:

you just gotta keep trying a few times in a row, or maybe every 5 minutes or so. they are almost constant purging their membership (idle accounts mostly), so you just gotta hit it when one opens up, but there are frequent openings. i think it took me about 20 minutes of random attempts to get mine.

good luck!

Finally got a Dime account!!! In downloading these torrents, I found this one. on shnflac.net. I had forgotten that I once saw Roy in my hometown of Guilford back in 1988. It was his last show, one week before his death.
