Poor ol' Hubert didnt get to say anything because that little fucker wouldnt STFU.
-
talks like he was 55... boastin' around with he's blondeness.... I find him unsympathic tho he plays all right...
-
i totally agree. i have always felt that he was a player all his own. everyone just assumes because he plays a strat and uses a fender amp that he is ripping or Stevie when in reality that's a big chunk of the blues world. but you make a good point there is some Eric Johnson in him. he really has a good mix of influence that makes him unique.
-
@Soulshine59 sure theres SOME influence there. but even when you watch him as a kid, he doesnt really play like stevie. and hes always stated the british blues scene to be a bigger influnece as well as guys like rory gallagher and i hear that a lot more than SRV. also obviously some eric johnson thrown in. but a bunch of the people that joe likes, SRV liked too. so the similarites might actually be from there.
-
i heard about them not giving him credit and that it BS!
-
i hear some stevie in him but he takes influence from everywhere. i saw him live recently and the man can play and i talked to people who met him and said he is so humble.
-
cocky my ass!
-
what buzz oh ive played too many years with out ear plugs i always hear a buzz its a noise of some kind
-
Either turn that amp off.
Or unplug the guitar.
Because that buzzing noise is annoying as hell (LOL) !
I think Kenny states the obvious about himself from 4:33 to 4:50...and Hubert seems to agree LOL!!

He is cocky, and wish he would shut his pie hole and let the real Blues Man talk!
