For me after it's all said and done, slide is the only justification for living with those short-necked six-string

This is one of those recordings that is just subliminally bad-ass, that when you're in the car you just TURN IT UP and draw funny looks from the cars around you. A real craftsman, like Ry Cooder, Lindley added just so much to the recordings for others and his own with an amazingly unique outlook and skill set. Will be missed.
