Biloxi Education System Starts Here


Since I started my day? or night? in Biloxi on the way home from New Orleans early this morning, lets start with something that the city is known for but lets go with a lesser known version.

Click 1 - The Gambler - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzyL0hBboYU
I didn't know that Johnny did this song but that is the kind of stuff you learn when you randomly enter a song title into YouTube.

Click 2 - Yankee Rose - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qz5w06Naq0c
Why this song comes up as a suggested link, I will never figure out but the video is awesome.  One of my favorite front men of all time.  "Ill take a bottle of anything .... and a glazed doughnut TO GO...."

Click 3 - Crossroad Blues Duel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TD4o3VDnftI
I simply amazing scene from a good movie.  The long hair freak in this video was playing guitar for David Lee Roth, hence the link.  At this point, he was fairly "unknown" except by the guitar geek world.  I am so happy this link come up....

Click 4 - Just a Guitar Duel (You will see) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFrcPgyRG9w
Two of my favorite guitarist of all time.  I am so happy that this route has gone this way.  Zakk's language may be a little "rough" at times, but the music is amazing.  Guess who they are covering!@!!  Also, it is so weird to see Zakk without the whole beard and viking look.,

Click 5 - Foxey Lady - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PVjcIO4MT4
While we are on Jimi Hendrix, lets look at an original.  1968 (hah, before I was even born) in Miami.  I think Noel's fro was bigger than Jimi's in this one!!!!  Nice none the less, another amazing entry for today!  What could we possibly end with?

Click 6 - Stairway to Heaven - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q7Vr3yQYWQ
From one guitar god to another.  Lets finish this thing strong.

Started with an old school country song and end up traveling through four amazing guitar gods of the last four decades.  I think this trip has been simply amazing.
