Minus all the music which is very disappointing

saw it at the film festival and enjoyed it more than i expected to tbh

the dark haired girl in it is pure smokin', the one who plays keith richards' ex

does he deserve the respect he gets as a guitarist and performer ? I think he does,simply because of the things he could do with a guitar were from old footage i have seen was amazing,as if hs was letting his guitar speak and let his emotion out through it.Also some of the songs he has written are still good today as they were when they were released.Thats a good sign when songs stand the test of time IMO.

Im not comparing him to any others just on his merits alone really.

Take away his pedals and he's poor enough.

Nowhere near the level of say a Chet Atkins.

I have no doubt that had Jimi lived, he would ahve produced even better music than what had gone before. The guy was and still is untouchable. He did things with guitars that even the greats like Clapton, Page etc can still only dream about.

Clapton

Ffs stick to the disco music.

Are you saying Clapton isn't considered one of the great guitarists?

I wouldn't be his biggest fan but it's generally accepted that he was pretty handy tbf.

Clapton is regarded as a reasonable techichian. Not one of the Masters.

Surprised you have time for Clapton given his overt racist past, Eoin.

Did you not see where I said I wasn't a big fan?

I'm well aware of his racist comments, but his music, some of the Cream stuff aside, does little for me tbh.
