I wouldn't call him a master, but he is good.

Dunno, Teleman77 - sounds like music to me!

His head-shaking and body language remind me of Ronnie Earl.

Excellent player and real nice guy. Last I heard he was out of action for some undisclosed health issues. When I saw him was using his old beat up tele and a randle amp. He sound great.

I just watched "Blues Stew" and he sure sounded great to me! I've heard of Kenny forever, but I've not heard much by him. Yeah I think he's great! I also noticed ol' Kenny Blue Ray in there. Where's he been? He used to hang around these parts.

Guy's, I didn't say he was a bad player. I just don't put him at 'Master' status.

I reserve 'Master' status for players that include..............

Danny Gatton
Roy Buchanan
Brent Mason
Mike Stern

Get the idea? Kenny Neal is not in the same catagory.

Stick a "IMO" and "YMMV" in there and all will be forgiven son.

I know a lot of people who would strongly disagree with some names on your list too. I don't know why. It's just personal tastes.

I just put "master" in the title so people would at least look at the videos...

I anticipated being called a bonehead by more than one person...

teleman 77,

That's quite alright. No explanation necessary. You're as entitled to your opinion as anyone.
