2 of my fave blues guitarists - killing it on one of BB's best ... best part was how respectful Gary was - he could have so easily went into his unwordly guitar wizardry mode, but kept his chops in check to complement BB's song --->

Huey and Billy---two of the most underrated guitarists ever... It sickens me when the Rolling Stones magazine puts Kurt Cobain in the top 15 of greatest guitars ever and then these two don't even make the list at all... Shows how little they know...

Rode over to the memorial for Jimi Hendrix today, great weather for a ride so checked out what was going on. Not much. 4 people and a documentary film maker. Great sun for pics though.

Have Studio 99's "inspired" cover album of CCR on as I type.
So glad I picked it up! 5 bucks, and excellent music for all day, any day.

I love Metallica songs, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, AC / DC. Best Guitarist? Definitely Angus Young. It's hard to find better. Anyway, AC / DC in their golden line-up is the best rock band today.

More known as a C&W artist, but he can play blues and rock with the best of them. Junior Brown.

Great post 😁👍.. I've watched this video a few times before.. he's overlooked by many because he never got much air play other than a few songs in the 90s before country music went right into the tank..😠

I enjoy the female blues guitar playing of Samantha Fish. I love the way she builds this finale to a frenzy (Black Wind Howling)...

She has more talent in her little finger than most of the mainstream so called "musicians" have in their entire collective.. she's been one of my favorites since I discovered her a few years ago.

Here's on of my favorite covers of "Dead flowers" by Samantha Fish.

Love her!

I watched this special on Buddy Guy last week and really enjoyed it, as a way to find out who he really is and as Chicago Blues history. I think it's well worth an hour of your time if you're a blues enthusiast.
