Ahhh, SRV....nice one monobrow. Pity he left this world just as he was getting over his habit....an awesome guitar player, what may have been. The night he died in a helo crash Eric Clapton followed him onto the stage after his set wondering how he could top his performance.

BBC Four had some amazing shows on last night about Seasick Steve. I recorded them on Sky+ and watched them this morning, absolutely amazing and he's quite a funny guy, too. It was especially good when he described the story of his 3-string guitar!DT_Xtremez_31:

I did, cheers. It must have been quite an experience to watch!

It was good to watch the documentary 1st to see where exactly he was coming from with the music. I would recommend him to anyone who enjoys real, 'from the heart' music.

Good find, Soupdragon.DT_Xtremez_30:

[Jim_P_Pulfrew]

You want harmonica?

Let me commend for your listening pleasure John Popper of Blues Traveler

And to prove real virtuosity on the gob iron:

I have been listening to them for about ten years now, some of it is brilliant some mediochre but Popper can play. (I also like him because like me he is fat and has issues!)

And introducing Tommy Emmanuele for those who may not have heard of him.....
In my humble opinion, probably the greatest guitarist today.....

Awesome thread. Not sure if you guys know about it but every year Dundee hosts Europes biggest free blues festival. It started with a few bands about 13 years ago on a Sunday. Its now a multi national 3 day event. Just about every bar in Dundee has bands on and its all free (sadly that doesn't include the juice) bloody marvellous week end especially when the suns out and all you can hear is the sound of blues all over the city. Check out the Dundee Blues Bonanza website for more dates and bands. I'll be there for my 10th year this year.
