Bruce Cockburn
Danny Gatton
He is intentionally not so.
Back in ‘76-’78 he did the rock god/guitar hero thing and then deconstructed it. He ended up detesting it.
Changed direction and lost a lot of fans as a result.
He’s worth checking out. ‘Pod.
Greg Howe, Tosin Abasi.
Wasn’t that the “Tullavision” tour? I saw them at Tampa Stadium in ‘76. I understand that there is a DVD of the Tampa
concert available. Might only be the Tull portion, though.
Doyle Bramhall II doing a pretty amazing version of Muddy Waters’ She’s Alright. He’s mining the Trower vein here and/or the darker end of Hendrix:

Oz Noy, a great new-ish Israeli guitarist, playing outside the box over a funky groove:

Albert Collins showing the correct way to play a slow blues solo:

Albert King, another great slow blues solo here, a real goose bump raiser. Love the dark vibe and the strings:

Danny Gatton, Harlem Nocturne and Perry Mason Theme:

Richard Thompson playing some cool gnarled up angular stuff on Hard On Me from his Mock Tudor album. This song builds and gets really intense:

Whoops, make that Freddie King, not Albert King (although Albert’s awesome too of course)
9.00 to see Jethro Tull and Robin Trower. That sane bill would cost 80.00 bucks today..
Yep. A great historical song writer. I love “Nostradamus” as well. You know what other band had a history theme in some of their songs? Abba.
Don't know. But I remember them bringing Ian Anderson's beloved flute out in a baby carriage under a bright spotlight, implication being the flute was his pride and joy, his 'baby'.
