Slow Hand vs Smooth hand

[Magdave]

I was trolling the music archive for a certain song from this guy that will tie into a future post . We all know who Slow Hand is right? Eric Clapton. But this guy was always one of my favorite players and he never uses a pick. IMHO he IS the most highly underrated guitar player of our generation. May I present Smooth Hand?

And he is still kicking around. Seems to have a more countryish sound these days

Axe war, I just love a good guitar battle.

Try this one on for size.

On a side note, I could not even agree with myself on who may be the best guitarist. There are just far to many over the years.

Some of my favs are: Mark Knopfler, David Gilmore, Gary Moore, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Alvin Lee, Robin Trower, Jimi Hendrix, Joe Satriani, Richie Blackmore, Randy Rhodes, and Eddie Van Halen just to name a few. And there is my point, to many to mention.

Here is Rolling Stone top 100.

Her is my favorite album at the moment

Not saying this guitarist is one of the best, just saying I love this album.

The title of the song is also the name of the album.

As he was not in the rock n roll world, don't forget Phil Keaggy.
He has released more than 50 albums.
