Bottomless Pit #123 -- “A Salute To the Fender Stratocaster” (11/23/13)

#123- original air-date: Nov. 23, 2013
Starting with the very first Bottomless Pit show back in 2005, “A Salute To the Fender Stratocaster” was an occasionally-recurring feature segment on the show throughout its entire history. On this episode I decided to go big and do the salute for all three segments- i.e. the entire show… 
Over the years of course, a staggeringly diverse range of artistes have embraced the Stratocaster- this show begins at the very beginning with Sammy Pruitt, Thumbs Carlisle, Johnny “Guitar” Watson, Otis Rush, et. al., and from there we go to other points on the map, mainly NYC, and hear Nile Rodgers, Robert Quine, Leni Stern, and of course many more. What could go wrong??..
