Yeah, we have all heard of the usual names, but what about the lesser known or underrated guys? Who are your favorites?

I know Scott Henderson is far from just a blues rock guy, but this album is full of amazing blues rock goodness :love:

They were all Strat guys the Telephant goes and fucks it up.

Seriously though, great choices.

I was going to say Sean Costello...but I was too late...so I'll suggest another Atlanta player, Tinsley Ellis.

Sound is washed out, but you'll get the point. I'm not sure if he is sober at this point, or gakked out of his gord. But these kind of antics are the norm for him.

Carvin Jones, he's a local guy who's been gigging forever here. I'm pretty sure he tours all over and plays blues festivals around the world, but I don't think he's widely known.

Some real good stuff in this thread. Great timing though. I was on a huge Otis Taylor kick very recently and I feel like he never gets mentioned. Some of his stuff is more straight up blues but he kicks so much ass.
