I HATE "SUITS" IN THE BIZ!!! (not that I know any)
But this guy should've EX-F***ING-$PLODED!
I love Mike Varney's "Swimming Against The Current" ethos
I can't believe people lick all over Mayer and EG -a real gritty dude- Straight Up Legitimate Blues, and you gotta listen to college radio or satellite to catch his stuff off the cuff.
A shame. If I didn't subscribe to every guitar mag I wouldn't have known who he was. And he got a lineage
@theguitarczar mayer is a great guitarist (and even better composer) and has a totally different style of playing when compared to gales. + he is a pop artist with blues-ish songs doing some real blues aside..
I love both of them... but cant compare them.. its like comparing steve lukather to derek trucks or jeff healey to bb king.. why would you?
@OMERTA011 You're right in that Mayer is an excellent guitarist ("great" gets thrown too easily, in my opinion. Much like "genius.") but he is a Pop guy first. True. Playing blues notes, and actually BEING Blue and having that permeate one's playing are totally different. I don't think the Lukather analogy really fits. He's never tried to come off as a "Blues" player, he has his own style of shred, where -let's face it- anyone can hear that Mayer worshiped at the SRV alter
5 Stars! I believe EG really must've lived with one!
