George Thorogood before his return to Bakersfield's Fox Theater on 4/12/07 !

The guitar legend known for bringing the blues to MTV in the '80s with his hit "Bad To The Bone,"  visits the Bakotunes soundlab to give us the lowdown on what makes him and his band, The Destroyers, tick.

Did you know?
-George Thorogood hails from the not-so-bluesy state of Delaware?

-Bakersfield, CA is one of his favorite places to stop while on tour?

-His first record company stalled the release of his debut, because they didn't have any money for a album cover photo. George took his own with a Polaroid to speed up the release.

-Thorogood's signature classic guitars have been stolen so many times, he makes his crew sign a liability contract to assure their safety on tour.

-His classic rendition of John Lee Hooker's "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer," is one of the most played songs on classic rock radio ever!

PLUS! Music by George Thorogood and The Destroyers!
"One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer," LIVE!
