I'm not sure he cracks my top 5 of white blues guitarists - especially since his most notable work came with a group that I would hardly consider blues.
July 30, 20205 yr I'm coming to the opinion that Green can be the best white blues guitarist outside of Texas.

With his debut in '83 and subsequent years until his death, SRV's greatness was magnified by the state of music at the time. The world was knee deep in the MTV 80's age.....synthetic, full of image.....not a lot of heart and soul. So, when this Texas guy shows up playing accessible blues and featuring great guitar playing, he, practically, stood alone. Hell, he did stand alone. As great as Peter Green was, he had incredible contemporaries around him.....Hendrix, Lee, Beck, Page, Clapton, Bloomfield, Allman, Gibbons, Taylor, etc. ever boosting the argument of his greatness.
August 1, 20205 yr Just checking in on this. I'm on the board with Don Shula (+10). Who else has scored so far?
August 2, 20205 yr 85?? I thought he was 85 thirty years ago....RIPHe was only 50 when Cocoon came out.

August 3, 20205 yr Former DJ Bill Mack died of the Corona. I remember listening to him when I was a little kid on his overnight Country Roads Show. WBAP is a clear channel 50,000 watt blowtorch and you could pick him up almost anywhere in the US at night. Wrote LeAnn Rimes first hit "Blue". Edited August 3, 20205 yr by RPM
