Well, I am a big JW fan and met him a few times, and Edgar, and I got to play several times with Uncle John Turner who was on a couple of the very early JW albums and went with JW on his first British tour. For me, there are several “periods” in the playing style of JW: early Gibson Firebird/tube amps, the LIVE rock period along with the Rick Derringer period, the Dan Erlwine Lazer guitar period, and into the solid state amp and flanger/chorus late period -everything post mid-90’s Rock Plast concert. This piece falls into the later period, but for me has resonances of the Beatles’ use of chorus/flanger from their AbbeyRoad/White Album days, perhaps unintentional but probably completely aware, then also note choices in the progression also remind me of those albums. Merely my opinion. I was going to throw up his covers of “Stranger Blues,” “Drown In My Own Tears,” and “Mother Earth,” but put what I was listening to instead, with the original by Ray Charles. I think JW along with Gary Rossington two of the most underrated, amazing musicians. Rock n’ Roll!!!

Camper Van Beethoven were my jam during my college days in the 80s…

Edit to add: They play a lot of different styles in their music. The vast majority are originals, but check out their cover of Pink Floyd’s “Interstellar Overdrive” which starts around the 27 minute mark.
