    Excellent!  I also saw Lindley and El-Rayo X at the Cotati Cabaret years back and they tore the place up.  Everyone was moving, dancing, smiling, cheering, sweating.  One hot band!

    Not exactly lesser known, but George Thorogood is not taken seriously enough, I saw him live a week after Buddy Guy at the same venue and he could hang with Buddy all night long.
    George is pretty damn good and puts on a  fun show. Saw him play a couple years back.

    Also check out Joe Stump if you're impressed by Shred Guitar. He's one of the fastest players in the world. Saw him earlier this year and it was mindblowing. Plus my friend was drumming for him so it was very cool.

    Billy Duffy from The Cult. He's also a brilliant songwriter. I really love how the majority of their music is written by he and Ian Astbury. His tones are some of my favorites. Jamming on The Cult's records and demos, and wow! Underrated, for sure.

    He may not exactly be a ‘guitar great’ as such, but I’ve always admired Xavier Rudd’s ability to do this...
