Blues guitar

Also brilliant
Saw him at the Free Trade Hall the night before the League Cup Final in 76

I saw Trower at FTH but I think it was 1975. I do have the ticket but it's actually stuck to a piece of card and you can only see the back of it, which has his autograph on it. His playing was brilliant. Another wild night at the FTH, surely one of the greatest venues this country ever had.

Yes I agree about page,particularly on 1 where they were covering a lot of classics. Haven’t listened to Joe Bonamassa but will since you mentioned him.

Bonamassa is an astonishingly good technician; he doesn't just play Blues either. His group with Glen Hughes and Jason Bonham (Black Country Communion) is a rock group.

End of thread .....R.I.P Stevie

Was lucky enough to see him at the FTH.

Saw Rory G live a couple of times in late 70's and he was superb. Those gigs were absolute riots: the boy could get a crowd going. Much preferred him live to Clapton: far more energy. Clapton does make playing the guitar look easy though.

I saw Clapton this year at the RAH. He is a complete genius but zero engagement with the audience. I wish I had seen Rory live.

Glen Hughes? Did he not play bass for Deep Purple?

This gentleman could have been a Blues giant if he had wanted to be: simply the best of the best on electric guitar:

Another genius taken too early ..... listen to his guitar playing on the bottom song

TB was a great guitarist and those are two fantastic tracks but Blues they are not!

Gary Moore?


.

Is the correct answer,nobody comes close to Gary,what a genius the man was,what is even more incredibe is that he was left handed but learned to play right handed.
