50 Years For George and the Destroyers

Lonesome George started out playing acoustic guitar, and he was awesome. He played Robert Johnson and Elmore James, and it wasn't long before he formed a band with friends from high school. As George tells it, the band played a gig and someone kept telling the crowd "The Deleware Destroyers" would be right back. That wasn't the name of the band, yet somehow the term got attached. They were the Destroyers. It was meant to be. It's so great to see classic rock endure, and it's even better to watch someone who loves playing guitar the way Thorogood does.
