Ah, nice! Another Ty Tabor fan! Honestly, I've only recently discovered him and King's X (another ProgRock band in my current playlist). I'm currently enjoying his latest solo release- Rock Garden.

And, I can't believe I've neglected to mention one of my alltime faves- Leslie West!

Goes to show that there are so many (players) and so little instant memory cells (me)... Confused

Interesting to see Frank Gambale mentioned several times.

And what about a mention for Danny Gatton <RIP>.

Nice of Daved to also mention Andy Powell and Ted Turner of Wishbone Ash.

The Isley brother who rips off those mean riffs in That Lady!

Others unheralded: John March, Oliver Harris, David Henderson.

And, a couple I just thought of who I've seen and thoroughly enjoyed: Jim Weider, Johnny Hiland.

Thanks for the mention Johnny. The Isley Brother you're thinking about is Ernie.

Sacha Distel (RIP) - a surprisingly good jazz player

Eric Idle - a good picker

Roy Buchanan

Oddball......but such an inspiration on tone / feel and passion....We play "I'm a Ram" and i feel the song.. I am lucky to catch his vibe with a bass player/singer that wanted to play and sing it...so I dug into his thing and I think I see what he was after.

Hmm, heard good things about Mr Buchanan.....will have look him up....we may be kindred spirits. Saw an old picture of him with a Tele and he certainly looked odd! Mind you, the same is often said of me......

Well, I didn't know Eric Idle played guitar. However, I think he does a great job on vocals on "Always Look at the Bright Side of Life".
