Philojet I've got the dvd it's great. I've seen live many of the people you mention. I agree with you about Clapton. No imagination. The thing about J.B. is he can play Jimi like Jimi he can play a slide like john lee Hooker, he can play scales like Mcglaughlin, and he is at his heart a blues player. He along with Jimi Page and Keith Moon created " heavy Metal" before Zepplin existed. He went through a long stage of progressive jazz creating sounds no one else has. No one has his tone or his phrasing.His lyricism when playing " cause we ended as lovers" or " Nadia" or " day in the life" or " over the rainbow" is something to behold. Far from being over rated he is a musicians musician. He never settles into any identifiable genra. He had the opportunity to join several big time bands but always went his own way. Most of his contemporaries have since decayed. Check out on the dvd where guitarists in the audience are trying to figure out his fingering. In the audience of 200 or so is Jimmy Page, Robert Plante, John Bonjovi, the guitarist for Queen. Musicians show up at his gigs because he is so very, very special. - Jim
