George Thorogood Live - Johnny B. Goode

George Thorogood

…born in the 1950s, he began his career in the 1970s. From the beginning, he performs with the band The Destroyers, which he founded with his school friend drummer Jeff Simon.

One of his biggest hits is “Bad to the Bone.” Many people associate this song with the bar scene in the movie “Terminator: 2.” However, this was not the only film in which it was used. We can hear it in a dozen or so others, as well as at numerous sporting events.

George and the band have released over twenty albums, many of which have earned the status of platinum and gold records. They constantly give concerts although in 2014 they celebrated their 40th anniversary.

For lovers of Thorogood’s style of play, the guitar maker Epiphone has created a special model Epiphone Ltd. Ed. George Thorogood White Fang ES-125TDC Outfit. The instrument modeled on the legendary ES-125 has a mahogany neck and a laminated maple body in white. It is a hollow body type construction, equipped with two P-90 pick-ups.
