For me I immediately think of Ry Cooder followed by Duane Allman.

I honestly miss him.
His stuff always sounded fresh right down to the end.

It's only the last few months that this song is absolutely stuck in my head, but Midnight in Harlem- Tedeschi Trucks Band

Love the slide… Luther Dickinson, Derek Trucks, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Son House, Duane Allman, Bonnie Raitt, pretty much anyone Alan Lomax recorded.

No particular song, but Bonnie Raitt popped into my head.

Gary Rossington explains the original intro to Free Bird. “Around 1970, when we wrote the song, I had just started playing slide.”
“We kept playing the chords over and over, until Ronnie figured out some lyrics, and I came up with the slide part. But when I played, the bottle kept clinking against the frets because the strings were too low.
“I took a screwdriver, of all things, and stuck it under the strings up at the nut, so it would raise the strings up like a steel guitar. Then, I tuned the B string down to G – so the G and the B strings were both tuned to G. With the two Gs, it creates a drawling, doubled sound."

Joe Walsh and Gary Rossington come to mind, but speaking of George:
Give me Love

Please Come to Boston
