Perhaps my favourite electric guitarist is American James Burton, renowned for playing on big hits by the likes of Ricky Nelson and later with Elvis. Today I'm writing about the classic hit "Susie Q", co-written by Burton and recorded 14th February 1957. Why mention this ?

I'm now wondering whether the town of Dubberly is historically linked to Dean Forester settlers, miners maybe ?. The State of Louisiana certainly has French roots, especially in the deep south..
