Passed away, a few weeks ago. Just my type of playing, while my friends were listening to Donny Ozmond back in the day , I was rocking.



Things WILL hit your life like this does mine, still things to learn from his playing, for me.

Rock On !!

and this album

wow, thanks for posting red_fist :/ this is the first i heard - sad, but he was a great guitarist who provided fans with quite a lot of quality music ... i saw him live in concert 4 times, starting with "Johnny Winter And" in the early 70's... i saw the version of his band AFTER rick derringer left but holy crap could those guys play! his fast fluid lead style was very hard (physically) to pull off and some of those solos took a LOT of practice and stamina to play "properly" - listen to "be careful with a fool" from his fist album...

Cheers

Damn I didn't realise he had passed. Was definitely one of my favourites guitarists. Still got his first album on vinyl. RIP.
