Re: Recommend A Great Guitar ... CD / Album !!!
Oh, something someone said the other week reminded me of a gem I owned on vinyl back in the late 70s. It was (I believe) put out by _Guitar Player_ magazine, by Mike Bloomfield, and the album was called "If you love these blues, play 'em as you please." Bloomfield played a bunch of classic blues styles--sort of a sampler. One track I still remember was "WDIA," in the style of B.B. King (WDIA was the Chicago radio station King had a show on in his early days.) FANTASTIC album, full of Bloomfield's incredible playing. I need to see if that's been released on these newfangled "CD" things I hear the young people talking about! (GREAT thread, Bobbo!)

The BluesBreakers with Eric Clapton (otherwise known as The Beano album)
excellent playing, although some have already stated it's not quite their taste. |
