I did miss him...good catch. I included D. Gilmour because he is basically a blues player anyway though he played a lot of rock and roll. (And his tone is simply heavenly.) But you are right, I missed Peter Green so consider him in the "hon. mention" category.

Peter Green is an obvious miss from your list. He had the best tone of any white blues player, and also one of the best vocalists.

That's where the different tone comes from. But you have to adjust your tone a bit or it just sounds muddy. It's really not difficult to pick with your thumb.. I do it a lot. Most blues is mainly left hand techniques anyway. ...Unless you're Albert King or Hendrix.

OK- anon540, I am a gullible one I guess. Yah, jamminjimi8 says itanother way.. below u..that 'he SAID that in order to connect.' I get so taken in by the PERFORMANCE that I forget that its WORDS ON A STAGE. YES, a 'girl' who could sing beautifully, and do what he said. I'm slow but I evetually catch up/ think about it! He was a 'swooner!' Not a pimp, Indigo must think a pimp is something cool,but its not. Why number an artist? There are too many greats to categorize.

He said that in order to connect with people in that situation...i think lol.

anon540 (August 29, 2008 at 2:39 am)

He had the opportunity available. He chose to be single for the most part. He chose a girl who could sing beautifully and do what he said. One who would never leave him. What could be better?

Albert King is a pimp

Its so hard to hear that a guy this great, this talented and who everyone thinks so highly of.. says he had nobody..WHUH? NOW THAT's the BLUES. Being ALBERT KING.. and not getting no lovin? Maybe there is something to BORN UNDER A BAD SIGN, I tried to think it aint so, but come on, ALBERT on his own?? WRONG WRONG WRONG.
