I have so many, hard to begin......of all songs..this one almost takes the cake for me.....virtually unknown song, but totally captured the zeitgist of the guitar-based, slightly retro rock you hear so much everywhere in Austin....


YouTube - Brian Setzer - Drive Like Lightning, Crash Like Thunder


Reminds me of about 100 outdoor festivals I've seen in town over the years......so many great retro rock guitar players in this fine city!
