Does anyone know the full name of the writer of the song "Thunderin' Guitars"? All sources list the name as J. Knettel, does anyone know what the J stands for?

Could it be Jeujene of the Jaybots? Can't find much information about them other than it looks like they're from Minnesota. Bambi Molesters do a great version of it.

So much for my spelling. Sometimes the brain and fingers don't communicate with each other.

Sorry for the late reply. I just found out about this page. My father in law was the guitar player for that recording. His name is Darrell Winkleman and if I remember right he was very young when that was recorded.I have his 63 hofner hollow body sitting at my house. The only other member of the band I know of was gene juzeuk (thats probably spelled wrong). They was from St. Cloud Mn. My father in law left st cloud because His family moved to Osseo Mn as a teenager and there he was in a band called the rock a tones.
