Thought it was, maybe you're right. Hazy memory. Gary Boyle? Still tune though

I didn't get very far with the first clip, to be honest, and the second was better but didn't really do anything for me. I liked The Yardbirds one best of all, but it was still so so. His thing seems to be an exercise in technique expertise overall - I didn't find it soulful. Maybe that's just me though.

Gave it a go on youtube. Dear me. I make a thread asking for suggestions and go and embarass myself by not particularly liking them! Oh well. He's better than Eric, but no Jimi. Maybe I'm just not that into white guys doing the blues, which I do like.

Thanks jb, but I think I've probably drawn a blank on this one.

Oddly enough the usual view of him is that he eschews technique and attempts to get closer to a voice ,and thus that wee bit more soulful than a machine producing the pitches .
