"She used my body like a carrion crow doing that transmission thing on dust radio." I wouldn't mind practicing some sex majik on Chris - well apart from that he's dead. Spiritualism sex, anybody? Oh yeah!
I just ordered this. And as a fair warning if Amazon screws me over once more there will be hell to pay.

True story..........
College days...or a bit later...late 90's....going to the Herb David Guitar Studio in downtown A2....
http://www.herbdavidguitarstudio.com/catalog/images/store/tour/exterior_2.jpg
Cool little guitar shop...been there for ages...always great gear & staff that ARE musicians....
Anywhoo....My College roommate & Co-guitarist extraordinaire Kevin "Musty Sabadash" and I are going up the stairs into Herbs...notice a plae skinny dude sitting on the porch smoking Reds..............
Give Musty a sideways look....get inside..."I think thats Chris Whitley..."

Get inside and the dude working confirms it for me....he's playing the Blind Pig that night......

Me, Chris Whitley (when he had a pulse) and Jack White. Make for a nice Kristy sandwich if I do say so myself.

Some of the coolest guitar shops I have ever been into were in an old house. There was one in Syracuse, New York where the dude had all vintage stuff. I thought the prices were high then, now they are crazy.

I'd start with his debute...Living with the Law (1991)
Best quote on Chris ...."The post-Hendrix explosion of whammybar wankers hasn't produced a single axeman who can compare to Chris Whitley. His eerie, bluesy voice and American gothic tunes frequently draw attention from the fact that he picks like a pissed off Doc Watson jacked through a Marshall stack" – RollingStone.com
