etc... Cool a bass player made the cut! You�ve got good taste in pickers my friend I�ve got some cool stuff with Django and Stephan Grappelli on a gig between the wars in Paris and John Pizzarelli has one of the best Beatles tribute�s I�ve heard. John�s brother plays bass on all his stuff and he�s a monster too. O�l Bucky was a hell of a sire along with a 7 stringer.

I'm pretty unsophisticated when it comes to identifying guitarists and their work. One song that I really liked that was guitar-oriented was "Sleep Walk" by Santo and Johnny.

Forgot to add this guy,and I haven't seen anyone mention him yet,which is a shame,as he's most likely one of the very best guitarists to ever play. Paco De LuciaWB.

Sorry guys but SRV doesn't do much for me. Neither does any 80's guitarist that has fretboard diarrhea.

How about Alvin Lee with "Ten Years After" doing "Going Home" at Woodstock. Or Leo Kottke.
I have a Santana story. My cousin was doing a roofing job at Santa Cruz on the house next to Santana's, who had his wife's Mercedes for sale. Some people looked at the car and stopped to ask my cousin some directions. When asked if they talked to anyone about the car, they said that they talked to Carlos, the gardener. Carlos was watering his flowers.
Here are a couple of new names given to me by my nephew. Joe Bonamassa and Walter Trout. He works in a guitar store.

Yeah, that Page. His blues guitar is something else ... after I got over the heaviness of Led Zep, the bluesy stuff kept me around a LONG time.
You want goosebumps? Picture a packed arena, lights go out, lighters everywhere, crowd is yelling, screamin, on and on, dark stage, dark stage, dark stage, nothin, nothin, dark, on and on, and then Jimmy, after what seems like a half hour, hits the first five notes of "Since I Been Lovin' You."
Duuude.
rb Grand slam home run right there. I still get goosebumps listening to that version. Funny that it was left off the Song Remains the Same and only included in the latest remaster. I always considered it one of the best from that concert. If you don't have BBC Sessions, you owe it to yourself to check it out, there is another version on there. My list: Jimmy Page Jimi Hendrix Duane Allman and Dicky Betts Billy Gibbons Mark Knopfler
