1. Did you get into Two Against Nature?
Some great playing on there but I like it for the lyrics.

2. Sorry to butt in, but I agree
Two Against Nature was fantastic.
Their followup, Everything Must Go, was sharp, too.

Alive in America was the live record, 10 years ago.

I was pleasantly surprised that they're still good after all these years

7. Do you just have a terrific ear, Scorp, or do they actually identify who
plays what on which song on the CD release? On the LP, no doubt you remember, they just listed everybody who played on the entire album. Fun guys with liner notes, Donald and Walter, back in the day.

9. I love that song. I just figured it was Jeff "Skunk" Baxter.
Larry Carlton does rock on that song -- great guitar work!!

10. I spoke with Skunk on the phone once....
I was working in the music industry and he was friend with my old boss. Didn't he leave the biz for a gig with the DOD or NASA or something. I heard he was disigning ballistic missles or something....seriously.

11. I heard that too.
A while back, I was waxing rhapsodic about his solo in "Bodhisattva" (still one of my all-time favorites) and someone said he had actually gone RW what with the Star Wars and missile defense shields and like that. Sad. But still a kick-ass player.

12. "Bodhisattva" is one of my other favorites...I love the guitar on that
song!

I had not heard that Jeff had gone to work for the military defense industry. That is amazing considering the career he had going as a musician. Does anyone know if he still records with anyone?

13. As of '03, playing on a Yardbirds reunion record
This piece sketches out a lot of his missile defense stuff, but even more about guitars, not surprisingly:
