good greetings and best wishes to all.
As I read your favorites and remember how exellent each of them is,I am once again stuck!
In my circle of friends/musicians/blahblahblah/ "riff"means
line,phrase,....
I especially like Sundreme's response-the
song-the emotion-the real deal-
For any ARTIST or band to put together a
cohesive sound around the essence of the SONG
i think is rare...IMHO he is not alone but
no one has done it as consistently as Lightfoot.
I found out that lol means laughing out loud.I'll get over it but i liked it better
when i thought it meant Lots of Love.
Good Spaces,
russ

P.S.Terry the riffmaster rocks my world!
