Dallas' own Chris "Sidewinder" Holt is 'daring to dream' with Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs - Dare To Dream (feat. Graham Nash) 🎸

Neat old footage of Mike and Tulsa was home to Shelter Records where the Heartbreakers had their first record deal with Denny Cordell & Leon Russell. Neat video.

Very cool to see Holt thriving with a rock legend.
