They were a band with no weaknesses.
Astonishing band .
Astonishing sound.
Astonishing era.
What went wrong bands, labels , promoters got greedy, political correctness kicked in , fans are now robbed blind to listen to music and enjoy a beer at a concert .
The incredible talent incredible in that era was unique , and we now have a variation or copying of thier sounds in the modern era , the countless cover bands speaks volumes , these artist are still outselling new artist with back catalogue material .
It was just a unique and very rare time in music .
Yup :thumbup: and versatility as in this VideoQuote:

Now Dave Gilmour, well that's a different story altogether....
I have to disagreeQuote:

Hendrix, alex lifeson of rush , Tony iommi of sabbath , Robert fripp , joe Satriani , eddie van halen
Lets hope he doesn't get wind of this forum or you are likely to end up facing him across a courtroom. You will need deep pockets.Quote:

Loved Iommi's playing though, totally unique at the time.Quote:

Sludge, as you're a fan of Hendrix, have a listen to Randy Hansen. I think he's rated as the best Hendrix tribute act in the world and it's easy to understand why. He looks like him, talks like him, sings like him and most importantly plays like him. I've met him a few times on these rock cruises and he's a really friendly guy. Loads of his stuff on You Tube.
...ha..if you haven't anything you can't lose anything..Quote:

You have forgotten the greatest white blues guitarist of them all, PAUL KOSSOFF
