The three best guitarists of all time are surely Rory Gallagher, Gary Moore and Pat McManus. The first two gentlemen have unfortunately already died, but the third is fortunate enough to be in good health! And he is busy touring Europe and has a new CD in his bag: “LiveAlong The Highways” and this is – as the title suggests – a live album!

Pat McManus is a National Certified Addictions Counselor who originally used music in therapy with teens in alcohol and drug treatment from 1983-1990.

Los Hombres Malo is the seventh studio album by American rock band Outlaws. It was released in 1982 on Arista Records. It’s the first album without songwriter/guitarist Billy Jones.

The Outlaws have always been one of my favorites no matter the lineup and I’ve always considered Ghost Riders one of their finest works. I was not however a huge fan of Playin’ To Win at the time of it’s release in 1978 but listening to it now and coming to understand the dynamics taking place in the group at the time I’ve gained a new appreciation for the material on the record though I still believe the record was overproduced.
