What a great guitarist ! He was the Ray Charles of guitar.

Stuck in the Middle With You

Hard to believe a blind man could throw down like that.

Trivia note - his band was the bar band in the movie Roadhouse.

Sadly, he died young at the age of 41.

Highly recommend his album Cover to Cover. Here is one of the cuts:

Run Through the Jungle (CCR)

Yes! Big time.

Check this out. Live version of See the Light, with Dr John on piano and Marcus Miller on bass. Unbelievable guitar playing

"Look at Little Sister" with SRV is a good one of his.

Saw him in the few months I lived in Austin in early 89. It was right when Roadhouse came out I think. Played in some small bar in Austin, and it was amazing!!

Knew there would be a Peter Griffin "Roadhouse" reference. Classic!

Yes. His cover of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is awesome. I had a few of his albums back in the day.
