Great guitarist, IMHO - you can hear the obvious influences without the feeling that he's just imitating the riffs

He's had some personnel changes in his band Back Door Slam between albums, but they're still solid

One of my favs, Outside Woman Blues and yeah, I saw the Cream version performed live more than 40 years ago...:shocked:

solid player but I wouldnt say "great"
I think the bars across the US are full of guys playing at that level, if not much more innovative. dont mean to be negative.

I didn't take it as a negative, Jimmy - it's just personal taste

I think the kid's got a future - not too shabby for a 20 year old
