In all serious they're second only to Hendrix and Beefheart as far as blues rock is concerned.

Have you listened to Gallagher's Irish Tour?

There's something really raw and powerful about it that I've never heard captured in his other recordings. Absolute top tier stuff.

Also, someone mentioned Bonamassa, who I think is great. I'm just burned out on him a little.

Ah, hell with it: have a listen to this guy, who you probably would associate more with pop hits than blues rock, but can he play!

Also, good call on Rory G. Without question his finest album.

And one more, sure why not?

How do you feel about Free?

How did we manage to forget these guys?

They were better live than in the studio, imo, and didn't need Mike Bloomfield to sound great. This track, from a later jazzier line up, illustrates both points and showcases Paul B's killer harmonica:-
