Ouch!! I remember those. Reminds me of my age. Used to watch that series just for the last five minutes. On a side note, anyone who spells gem with a 'j' has to be a guitar player. :wink:

I wonder if you were to tell him he would be playing with Elvis back when he was that age- he probably wouldn't have believed it! :)

Frankly, with the track record he had already set down prior to the Nelson's finding him, I wouldn't have been surprised if he had responded with something like...."Sounds like a great gig, but what about Scotty??" Don't forget 'Mystery Train" :wink:

Yep, Mr Burton was already a guitar great at 17yrs, he played on Dale Hawkin's original hit version of Susie-Q. It's Mr. Burton that created that guitar riff opening, http://youtu.be/jVyLjLJrwaQ.

I also know Mr. Burton, and have jammed with him a few times at different events.
