no, i think pretty much everything he did was terrible. Cream, Yardbirds, Blind Faith were all pretty bad. i haven't heard John Mayalls Bluesbreakers, can't comment on that. only Derek and the Dominoes really has any redeeming qualities, and that could easily be attributed to Duane Allman's participation in the group.

i get fairly aggravated at all the crap floating around that still puts him on some ridiculous pedestal. i don't find his work remotely intriguing.
