yes I think the Rock start reutation may be partially due to Greg
Douglass antics... I mean writing a tune like
" Jungle LOve" kinda sums the man up..... I picture him in a loin cloth
strutting accros the stage in the 70s like
Ted Nugent did.....
Plus well as we all know the man is into some wild movies and still
can rock with the best of them as he just proved...
But I must also point out... I think he buys hsi guitar cords at
walmarts or radio shack.... dont let him give you the line" It was a
loner guitar"I had the tape anayalized and it cleary shows him pulling
out a Guitar chrord while in the audiance .. even though the other
guitarist told him get that damn chord out of here you nutball... and he
tried to kick him off the stage... BUT he kept playing in defience
It will all be in my new BOOK ' behind the JungleLOve + the Greg
Douglass story... its about a man who ws tragically spooked by a
crosseyeed santa claus at age 12 and how he was adopted by a gropu of
zulus in africa
and how after many years he emerged and was given a Gig by Steve Miller
band to help teach him how to live in modern civilization...
It apparantly didnt work, and thats why he still is Like a old
weismueller Tarzan flick and is why Rockstart are feared by God fearn
Christian Mothers everywhere...
Guiness book of recorde sights that Douglass de-flowered... 46% of
Young girls from catholic Girl schools... sad but true...
read my book.. soon to be a paperback/

I've known of Greg's association with top-40 rock music and his
ultra-complicated and catchy guitar riffs for a while, but beyond his
hilariously sarcastic posts at MoPo, I had never seen him play before
a live audience, e.g., I've only "heard" him on vinyl, tape, CD and
MP3s. He's so balls-to-the-wall funny that I've always wondered what
beyond a few of his self-described hallucinogenic and booze and girls
episodes - could have created such wit - and enhanced his remarkable
talent for music. Have always loved his guitar riff to "Jungle
Love." Like Welles said when it comes to creating a masterpiece, "you
only need one." Greg has WAY MORE than just one.

David - Great post....... I have known Greg for so many years,
sometimes he just pops in the studio to say hello. I am always so
happy to see him, he is just that type of person. It is such a treat
to see him in his element, thanks so much.

** I know this is off-topic, but this has to be shared as a great
"break" from posters. As some of you know, our own Greg Douglass
wrote many songs - most notably the top-40 single, "Jungle Love"
(1977) - when he was with the Steve Miller Band. (He's also
worked with the likes of Van Morrison and Greg Kihn.)
** Greg wrote recently on his Facebook page, "My
first-time-in-30-years-complete-and-utter-surprise performance of
'Jungle Love' with the Steve Miller band" was captured on video by
fan/friend Dave Evans on July 9, 2010, at the Pechanga Resort here
in Southern California (Temecula, east of L.A. in the Inland
Empire). It was posted on You Tube on July 18. Enjoy!

** (BTW, Greg's FB profile modestly notes that he's only a
"semi-famous" guitarist who lives in the San Diego area with his
"lovely wife, two dysfunctional cats, and a large collection of
horror movie posters.")
