In music,there is a such thing as being -too- good: People want their kindergarten stuff. The most popular Matt ever was can be seen in the "Blues Brothers" movie, where he didn't get to play one-hundreth of what he really does. That's ok, there are plenty of jazz geniuses who will never be nearly as successful as Matt has been.
Matt's sound with Memphis Slim (on the album "At The Gate Of Horn") was unique.Chilling & spooky are the only words i can use. You are right, his technique was years ahead of anyone else.

Say what you will, but Matt is the guitar king for me. Better than Clapton, B.B. King and all those sort of guitarists
