I realize the unfairness in asking you to recall events of forty years earlier, but I was curious if you have any recollection of approximately when 'Teenage Darlin'' was added to the set lists?

The first available full performance of the number currently available is from a January 1970 show at the Fillmore West -

However (there is always an however...), during a show from Den Haag from February 28th 1969, (it is in circulation as being from April of that year but that is incorrect), after a terrific version of 'Blue Suede Shoes', John McVie seems to be playing the bass line of 'Teenage Darling' as the audience wildly applauds that last number.

'Teenage Darling' does not get played, the next song is 'Twist and Shout', (which also remains unheard again until that same 1970 show at the Fillmore)

Would you remember if 'Teenage Darling' was being played as early as February of '69, or was it not introduced until much later?

Again, perfectly understandable if you do not remember - just an itch I was hoping you might be able to scratch



thanks

Dear Jeremy,

as I understand it, reading some of your interviews, you didn't like most of the music of FM's contemporaries, Are there any exceptions from that era that you like to listen to?

Hola Jeremy!

Listened to wat i can of your recent material and from what i´ve heard i prefer it to your stuff with FM. Your obvious passion still shines through but i´m hearing a lot more sophistication for want of a better word....so im looking forward for anything new coming.

Well my question if poss, did you ever get the chance to jam with jimi hendrix or clapton? :D

What better compliment can you pay to a musician in his early sixties who feels his best is yet to come?
To answer your question, I never jammed with Jimi, but after playing at a London press conference in 67, he came up to me and told me I had the right thing for Elmore James that other cats didn't. That was quite the encouragement! Eric? Pete was jamming with him at a rehearsal in Boston and he asked me if I wanted to join in. I declined out of fear and intimidation, and Joe Walsh took my place!
Anyway, thanks,
Jeremy.

Jeremy,

I'm curious about the writing of the original songs on Precious Little. In the notes, you mentioned that the title track had been recently written, and the melody for Maria de Santiago had been written seven years earlier. Is there any other information you can share on how and/or when the songs on the album were written?

Do you currently write songs regularly?

P.S.
I attended the slide guitar workshop at the Chicago blues festival and the earlier Fitzgerald's show, and very much enjoyed both of them.
