Wanted to find a recording of Mark Kozelek sing "Livingstone Bramble", but could find it, so here's the lyrics....

I can play like Fripp or Johnny Marr
And I can play circles round Jay Farrar
I like Jeff Beck and Page just fine
But I hate Derek Trucks and Nels Cline
I hate Nels Cline

I can play like Malcolm and Neil Young
And I can play circles round most anyone
I like Kirk Hammett and Steve Vai
But I hate Eric Clapton and Nels Cline
I hate Nels Cline

About

Although I knew the song I'd never heard of Geno Washington and knew nothing about him. Then during the Gillingham years, a mate of mine saw he was playing in Croydon and persuaded me to go on the way home from Priestfield. Bloody glad I did
