What Guitarists Remind You Of SRV Or Hendrix?


I never had the chance to see either live but I own many studio and bootleg recordings by both. I have had the pleasure of seeing a handful of players that reminded me of them, these include Chris Duarte, Mato Nanji of Indigenous, Bill Perry, and Kenny Wayne Sheperd. If you get a chance to see any of these guys you will not be disappointed.

richard lloyd (all)......larry coryell(the pre eleventh house stuff on vanguard) the real great escape is the most overlooked guitar record of the '70's.....
Azjake,
I believe you're wrong despite you saw Jimi live.
He's still a guitar idol that continues to live in the hearts and fingers of a large number of today's guitarists.
Jonny Lang and Ian Moore both have Stevie 'Rave On' string tendencies. Ian Moore's 'Ian Moore' CD/album is fabulous.
I was lucky enough in life to not only see SRV but also expereince him early in his career in a band called 'The Nightcrawlers' and hung out with him after a show in Dallas. If yo get the chance read the book 'Caught in the Crossfire' - about his life.
I saw Jimmy in Denver in 1969. Great show except for the tear gas leveled at fans who crashed a gate, and then the wind shifted and blew it to everyone in the stands. Can't help but wonder what he'd have put out in the past 35 years if he were still with us. I did like some of Frank Marino as far as comparisions go... p.s. tear gas and contact lens don't mix.
As far as SRV, the correct answer is Guitar Shorty,
As far as Hendrix, Jimmy Rogers' kid Jimmy D Lane has a lot of Hendrix in his music.
