RIP Chuck...

There's a line in "Nadine" that goes "Downtown searchin' for her, lookin' all around, saw her gettin' in a yellow cab headin' uptown." When I was 12 y.o. I was listening to that and heard him doing this weird riff starting with the word "headin'". Coolest thing I'd ever heard. I must have listened to it thirty times whilst trying to figure it out on guitar, and I finally did. It was the first time I actually accomplished something like that on my Christmas-present Sears Silvertone guitar, and I was hooked. I'll bet there are thousands of others who had the same experience with Chuck.
