RIP Nokie Edwards

Cannot express how much Nokie influenced my youth ( like thousands other), and my purposeful stoic guitar playing style. Only Don left..........
 
Here's a minute and forty eight seconds of absolute perfection...can't get away from how much credit the early Ventures deserve

they had a hippie with a 'Jerry Garcia' guitar tone filling in.
R.I.P Nokie. My first 'rock' LP as a kid in 1962:
