Some known, some obscure, but all fun.
Nice, I’d not heard that one!
Thanks for adding some slide!
Good Ry Cooder in “Last Man Standing” with Bruce Willis, Bruce Dern, and Cristopher Walken.

Lonesome Dave Prevrett formerly of Savoy Brown on Vocals, Rod Price on Slide Guitar
Played the guitar for Ralph Machiao during the guitar battle in Crossroads. Also, did the music for The Long Riders and Southern Comfort.
Featuring Sonny Landreth on slide guitar. Sonny appears on several live tracks at this concert, very worth a view.
Sonny makes lots of appearances with other performers. Find Jimmy Buffet's cover of Scarlet Begonias, that's Sonny's slide work.
Yep.
Find him with RL Burnside.

Outstanding! Loved that.
Anything by Justin Johnson. This song is called, “Smoke on the Water.” A Deep Purple classic played using slide guitar.

Sonny, Congo Square live.
In working this up, I figured out that he was fingering below the slide which pulls the string below the slide itself. Opened up a whole new technique.
Thanks! It’s an old favorite. Son used to live in Rochester NY and the House of Guitars would dig him out once a year to play on the blues mini-fest they’d have. I think he signed the autograph wall. Anyway, he’s on Stefan Grossman’s “How to Play Blues Guitar” sessions CD, and was interviewed for the liner notes of the Hendrix compilation “Blues”. He died in nursing care in Detroit.
