I just actually bought the Duane Allman bio Skydog. It is a great book so far and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

Any of you guys heard of an acoustic slide player named Stephen Bennett? A friend of mine brought me a CD he ran across and it is really good. The name of the CD is "Slide Area Ahead."

Leo Kottke and David Gilmour

I like Ronnie Wood too, but he can be a little sloppy. Hey -- that's rock 'n roll!!

I am extremely fond of Sonny, but it is very hard to compare Sonny and Duane because their styles are so different.

One of the things I miss most about being transplanted by Katrina is not being able to go to Lafayette and see Sonny and go to Houma and see Tab Benoit....

Here goes.....

Right now, without question, SONNY LANDRETH is the slide guitarist - he stands head and shoulders above everyone else.

Duane Allman ( RIP) in my opinion, is the finest OVERALL guitarist in rock music. He could play awesome authentic electric blues & rock, play beautiful country - blues acoustic and nothing has to be mentioned here about his skill as a slide guitarist.

RORY GALLAGHER (RIP) in my opinion of all the GREAT guitarists was unique . Besides being an awesome electric, acoustic & slide guitarist, he was a singer, writer, producer and a very highly skilled harmonica player, mandolinist, sitar player and saxophonist. NO ONE I know of amongst the highly touted players could do all that . And thats from his early 20's on to the end of his career and life.


Man - You nailed this one!!
