    Excellent! Yeah, Stanley is well know in jazz circles.

    Eddie Hazel just take a look at him playing Maggot Brain. It brought to my eyes seeing him play it live and knowing the reason why that song was written with Hazels input

    Alex Leifson the little known guitarist who contributes to the music writings for RUSH

    Vernon Reid of Living Colour who has come with some amazing riffs over the years, just wish this very good band could a bit more notoriety.

    Stanley Jordan.....jazz guitarist with a two hand style of playing guitar ill try and find a clip later of his playing style.

    Stanley Clarke.,., simply one of the best bassist on the planet School Days song is incredible.

    PRINCE....the man play ANYTHING but guitar he's one of the best. He played every instrument on his first album and he was STILL only a teenager.

    Peace,

    LOL! I like to think of it as "well seasoned".

    Peter Green is amazing.

    Here's a man who deserves much wider recognition- the incredible Robert Pete Williams. (Peter Guralnick writes superbly about Robert Pete in his book Feel Like Going Home.)

    His fret work is wild. His fingers are ridiculously fast.

    Jason Southard, formerly of Kane, Christian Kane's band....he's amazingly talented...and has gone on to other projects....but you should look him up, we Kaniacs miss him terribly! He added a real edge of rock to Chris' shows...My hubs can't stand country but on the few occasions I dragged him to Kane shows his favorite part was Jason Southard's guitar playing.
