Tip your hat, light a candle in memory of this GREAT American musician. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards will be paying for his funeral - a testament to his profound influence on popular music. Watch "Little Hubert" from Germany, 1964: Quite simply, Hubert Sumlin made the world a better place and for that I'm grateful.

A little late. But wanted to post this. Hubert and I at the NAMM show a few years ago. One of the highlights of the show for me. Wish I would have had my guitar with to have him sign like Jim did. He'll be missed...
