RORY GALLAGHER
I was surprised that people have voted for what I see as the lesser commercial artists with Clapton and Hendrix out of the top five and Free as well as Led Zeppelin not even featuring.
Delighted at the result though with Rory being remembered in this way, with the 25th anniversary of his death coming up next year. Absolutely amazed that he beat the current and excellent Bonamassa.

Ah well, if we're posting tracks try this threefur showing the blues can be pure joyous.
Taj Mahal, Jerry Douglas and the Tedeschi Trucks Band having some fun backstage.
Go and see Taj before it's too late, fantastic performer
Oh yes, I forgot about Tedeschi Trucks. Saw them this year at the Palladium. Great gritty vocals from Susan Tedeschi and brilliant slide guitar from Derek Trucks. Eight other musicians in the band.
Surprised as they are more of a current act and quite easy to listen to on many studio tracks, that they didn't feature. They do get played frequently on these shows.
