Awesome bass post.
I used to go and listen to this bass player at a club in Batavia N.Y. Talas was the band and Billy Sheehan was voted best rock bass player of the year 5 times in Guitar Player magazine. A truly amazing player.

Re: Favorite Blues/Rock songs/guitarists
I guess you could call this South Sea's Blues. Please enjoy Ledward Kaapana playing "Radio Hula" in the Slack Key Guitar style.
If you enjoyed that one, here's Ledward Kaapana picking out "Black Sand".
Sorry I got off topic but it never hurts to be introduced to something different.
Stumbled on to this one and fell in love with it. (well except for the commercial at the last third of the video)

Probably the greatest living acoustic guitar player, and one of my favorite musicians of all time... Tommy Emmanuel

Re: Favorite Blues/Rock songs/guitarists
This may not be blues/rock but Joe Ely has always had great guitarists in his band. When this was filmed his guitarist was Teye. This has to go somewhere so I’m putting it here. (We need to start a thread with just Texas musicians, covering all genres ).
Ely can play anything but I think at heart he’s a rocker. So to keep with the OP theme I’ll throw in this one too. The lead guitarist in Ely’s band at that time was David Grissom, who later joined the Allman Brothers, and Double Trouble among others. Not too shabby.

Re: Favorite Blues/Rock songs/guitarists
Nailed it TFL .
I keep gravitating back to those videos, unreal how good of a guitarist he is... Heck, i'm wearing a pink floyd tee shirt right now, "Dark Side of The Moon" cover...
After Tommy Emanuel and Mark Knopfler, Gilmour is my all time favorite musician/guitarist. How he does string bending, the way he does string bending, is beyond me. Not to mention his feel for timing, perfect execution, and masterful use of effects, to create all those wonderful soundscapes, he makes. And add on top of all that, a songwriting ability that's second to non. Through his music, he's able to touch a deeper part of the human spirt. Very few musicians in the last 40 years, heck, this last century, have written such meaningful, almost spiritual songs, in the way he did/does.
And that's the short end of the stick, you almost can't put it into words... Only by listening to his/pink floyd's songs, do you start to understand what he's trying to say through his music.
Allot like Bono/U2, except there a bit more direct in there messaging. Edge is also a great guitarist, as is Peter Frampton. Ah heck, all guitarists are awesome in my book, you really can't pick one over another .
I think, i'll now go, plug me ear buds in, and listen to that awesome guitar again, thanks for sharing it TFL .

Re: Favorite Blues/Rock songs/guitarists
The ORIGINAL Yes from the 1970s, with Jon Anderson, Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman, Chris Squire & Alan White. I went through an "album rock" phase where all I listened to was Yes, Rush, Queen, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, Genesis, etc... The best songs were at least 7 or 8 minutes long...

Re: Favorite Blues/Rock songs/guitarists
Last one tonight...
I played the grooves off this album (as did everyone that went to high school in the late 1970s). I never saw them in concert - I wish I had. Fun fact: Tom Stoltz, the lead guitarist, graduated with a Master's degree in Engineering from MIT. Also, check out the bass player in this video - cocaine was obviously very easy to obtain in 1979...

Re: Favorite Blues/Rock songs/guitarists
So many great performances. Wizards all.
Here is the one I keep returning to.... Prince schooling the world with a solo during While My Guitar Gently Weeps. The smile on Dhani Harrison’s face at around the 3:20 mark says it all. He knows what’s coming. Watch Prince’s technique. Enjoy.

Ha! I almost posted that video of Prince, Tom Petty, etc last night! Prince was a freak, but the guy could play!
Today, the complete Led Zeppelin Celebration Day concert from 2007 was released on Youtube. If you haven't heard it - do it now!

Here's one of my favorites, Kashmir - I think this is one of the best versions they ever did.
