 AllMusic describes him as "a rocking powerhouse of a guitarist who gave blues a burst of momentum in the '80s, with influence still felt long after his tragic death."

An emergency fighter is an aircraft designed or adapted for use as a fighter during an emergency period in war.
 While useful as a broad concept or definition, it is not easy to make the category of emergency fighter clear cut, as many aircraft designs are produced under pressure in wartime, and aircraft which were hastily adapted for use as fighters may then go on to have a mainstream career.
The Baby Grandmothers were a Swedish psychedelic rock band formed in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1967.
 Established after the dissolution of the R&B band, the T-Boones, the group enjoyed a cult following as the house band at the popular psychedelic music club Filips.

 In the same year, the group recorded an album's worth of material, which appeared years later on their self-titled album.
 The album is now considered an underground classic of experimental psychedelia.
