Why Steve Miller Thinks T-Bone Walker is King Of The Electric Guitar

Topic starter
Very nice interview with Steve Miller by Alan Paul. "Chuck Berry, the King of rock guitar, got all his primary licks from T-Bone." Now exactly what else do you need to know?
Miller had an extreme stroke of luck as a kid. His Father was a pathologist in Dallas and T-Bone Walker was seeing him for his severe ulcers. Miller ended up getting guitar lessons from T-Bone when he was 9 years old.
I own just one T-Bone record, "T-Bone Blues", a compilation. which I bought probably 15 years ago. I remember the first time I played it thinking that Dickey Betts must have taken a LOT of his country swing licks directly from T-Bone.

Sorry folks, I see that Alan Paul already posted this. Oh well, it's great info so now it's posted twice here.
