  9. I hope they gave him that guitar…they owe him more than they will ever know…maybe their shop wouldn’t even have been there if it hadn’t been for Stones,Clapton et al listening to Hubert in the first place on those 50’s Wolf tracks…got a feeling they didn’t though…

  21. Remember seen Hubert in The 1998. He was the front man. He had so much charm and Charisma. I saw a woman close to the stage. She had a standing orgasm. She made those kitty moaning growns all through the show. Great memories.
