Yeah, I love those memories -- except that I remember playing the original version of Susie Q, by Dale Hawkins, in our old crackerbox high school gymnasium in 1957!!! I was the DJ for the sock hops.
The natural reverb in that big old box was so cavernous that you had to work hard to figure out just what you were listening to. But it was all marvellous nonetheless. (Little known fact -- legendary session guitarist Jame Burton played the stinging lead guitar on the original verson. Hawkins sang and played rhythm guitar.
