No one has mentioned Eric Clapton yet. Any of his stuff is great, but of course, Derek and the Dominos would be my favorite, since we all know who one of the "Dominos" was.
Well, see y'all later, hitting the road this morning headed to SEMA. I am glad this thread started, now, three day road trip, xm included. ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!!

I forgot about Tommy Bolin.."Post Toastie". I recently bought some James Gang CD's"Joe Walsh". Clapton is so obvious he does not need mention. Robin Trower, Billy Squier, Jeff Beck.

'James Gang', then 'BARNSTORM'.

How about Outlaws, POCO, J.D. Blackfoot, Matthews Southern Comfort, Steeler's Wheel/Gerry Rafferty, and the Chi-Town Boys.... Alliota, Haynes and Jeremiah.

Since ya'll have mentioned most of the Southern rock bands, I thought I would through out a couple more: Charlie Daniels, Wet Willie, 38 Special and Elvin Bishop. All the talk about the Allman Bros and no one has mentioned Dickey Betts yet!!!
One of the best songs Dwayne Allman did was on his Anthology album, "Happily Married Man". "Ain't seen my wife in two or three years. I'm a happily married man"

Back in the 70's Bruce Springsteen use to play in this little dump down the street called "Le Garage" before he was famous, Also remember John Bon Jovi and others hanging out at garden State music before he hit the big time, I was in his first video at Seaside park. George Thorogood also played locally at a place called Joe Pops. Actually many famous musicians played at Pops, anyone here ever go to the place in Ship Bottom on LBI? As for Southern Rock, Skynard was the ultimate, Sweet Home Alabama will rock on forever

Haven't noticed anyone mentioning Ten Years After, Chicago Transit Authority, Canned Heat, Hendrix, how about the first heavy metal band, Black Sabbath, and the first heavy metal hit, Iron Man?

Or non-rockers who were cool, like CSNY, Dylan, and the Band??

If you want to go with some moe recent stuff...this name has to be on the top of the list...Stevie Ray Vaughn

And if you're talking instrumental (for the most part) guitarists...you've got Carlos Santana, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Gary Hoey, Eric Johnson, Steve Moore.....

My God, Robin Trower. Bridge of sighs. Charley, you have much better taste than Belair.

Hey, you need to include SRV there for your instrumental!! While he may be the King of Blues (IMO), ya still can't beat The age of the "Doors" and of Course - the sounds of "Motown". ---Eric Clapton played in the Garden this past weekend in a two nite comeback with "Cream". My brother in law paid $1500 beans for a ticket, said it was worth every penny.
