Very nice article about Eddie's life and career with a great many highlight songs included, most which I was not familiar with. Very soulful stuff. Recommend to those who have always wondered what all the Eddie Hinton fuss was about. Definitely deserves wider recognition than he received during his life. Glad to see him being honored by his home state. Thanks for posting.

Agree with your comments. I only knew a few small details about him and only because of the connection to Gregg & Duane.

Thanks for posting Berkhath.

What a great article. Thanks for linking.

What a talent.

Wonder how he would have meshed with Duane and the boys? Hard to imagine the ABB without Dickey's sweet tone and country influence.

I think Gregg would have loved his songwriting which was very soulful.
