Vaughan's sound is what does it for me, he is the only guitarist that i can tell from any song played who it is... he could even be doing things with other artists and you can always tell who was playing... (actually, Angus is another one, but its ACDC as a whole that makes him always noticable who is playing)

that and the Texas Flood at the Mocambo was lights out one of the best performances of anyone, ever...

its actually kinda close for me for a lot of people, Hendrix, SRV, King, Vai, Beck, Betts, Angus, Berry, Buckethead, hell even Slash is pretty damn good, just a lot of stuff done by some i dont like as much as others...

Nick, yes its real... fvcked up thing is i dont remember where it is around here, might be in the safe, who knows at this point....

my dad was a very good guitar player, from finger picking, to slide, to blues, rock, whatever... everyone that got to see him play were always amazed.. i have some old tapes around here that he did studio work with a guy named Mondo that lived up north... not sure where that is either...

i miss my dad...
