I used to watch Hee Haw every week, so I saw Roy Clark a lot. He played banjo too.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Although many people consider her a joke act (sort of like Dolly Parton), Charo can play pretty good.

Great choice. Andy is extremely under-rated. He was as important a band member as Sting.

When I was about 20, I saw Charo in Hawaii. She blew me away with her guitar skills. I had no idea the choochy, choochy girl could play like that.

Indeed. The trio were essential in their own ways. Sting was the face, and voice, and when he left, the band was done, but it would have been done if either Stewart or Andy had left.

Andy's playing, particularly on Outlandos D'Amour and Ghost In The Machine, was stellar.

Even though his stature seems to have diminished over the years, a pathetically drunk Eddie still plays better than we could ever dream to play. And his ability to produce otherworldly sounds with the guitar is up there with Jimi IMO (though i prefer Jimi's music by a longshot)

Mike Bloomfield, he was taught by BB King and all those great blues men.

My favorite modern guitar player would be Jack White.

White's an animal, needs to make more use of it.

I'll always drop in David Hidalgo from Los Lobos because he has his homies, Cesar Rosas and Louie Perez, backing him up so he can freak as he likes.

Lou Reed always does it right to me on his 10 min. forays... Ultimate garage.

Buddy Holly because he was so macho.

John Fogerty beacause the Cholos groove to him.

Steve Wynn because of "John Coltrane Stereo Blues."

Carlos Guitarlos because he hung with Top Jimmy.

David Austin because he's my compadre and I design his set-list.
