i hate how underrated blues is today.

when it comes to pure guitar ability, i'd say Buddy Guy and Duane Allman are the two best guitarists.

Duane Allman is arguable about standard guitar, altho he was ridiculously good, but when it comes to slide the only person who comes close to him is Derek Trucks. Derek Trucks is really really good, but i think he needs a couple more years till he surpasses the master.

Buddy Guy is just awesome.
