This young man is destined to be the flatpickin' GOAT if he's not already. I can't get enough of listening to him. He cut his teeth on Bluegrass. But he can do anything with an acoustic guitar. He wrote this song when he was living hand to mouth without two nickels to rub together. It put him on tour and on the Opry. This version was from several years ago when he first started getting paid,...in Traverse City Michigan. He's got a following that travels to his shows like the people who followed The Grateful Dead.
Fun music. I go to 1:23 and listen to his run over and over again.

Mark Farner ! A trained player might say he sucked. But my ears absolutely loved his playing on their first 3 albums. The solo on Inside Looking Out still rocks big time.

Half the guitar players listed here are commonly acknowledged as great guitarists. How can they be "underrated"?

More than half.
It's a lot easier to rate the over rated guys because they have a rating.

Great guitar player, and trivia combined. Name the guitarist whose band was named after a band member that never sung on any song put out by the band.

Could be. I poorly framed the question.
SHB: Name the band named after its guitarist, when the guitarist never sang on any song put out by the band.

Break my heart on this if it's honest. But this part monotone recording tripped my trigger in 69, & still does.
The solo starts about the 3 minute mark.

That's a great guess, might be right, tho Trower was also known as a vocalist with other bands.
Guy I'm thinkin of never sang a note with any band, far as I know.

Now, you girls are just naming guitarists you've heard of before.
Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue. Pronoun: Yes, SIR !

Try Jimmy Lyon Dude who played for Eddie Money, and others. Listen again to the solos on Two Tickets and Shakin'. Amazing!
