Slow hand

Inspired by the Pointer Sisters’ Slow Hand and that smoking, under-appreciated gem, Champaign’s 1981 smash How ’Bout Us — which has surely the sweetest Stratocaster lines in music history — if there was ever a “lick” that deserves the name, this is it — for which step forward one Leon Reeder, from whom pretty much nothing has ever been heard since. From there the list just sort of compiled itself.

There’s one little Easter egg: one of these songs is a cover by a well known metal band from the ’90s. See if you can pick it as you listen.
