You mis-read my post G-Man. I never said Eric "discovered" SRV- in my opinion, the best guitar slinger ever- and for the other LG poster- WTF does classical guitarist Andres Segovia have to do with Blues-that's about as relevent to Eric Clapton as Hillary Clinton is to feminity-Eric was "blown away" when he first heard SRV doing his first big release- Texas Flood, that is all. Eric did some stuff with B.B. King on a CD called "Ridin' With The King" B.B. plays Gibsons ES-3's exclusively (I favor a Paul Reed Smith for my electric "chops") and does anyone (besides me)know why B.B. has always called his Gibsons "Lucille" (he's on number 18 now I hear). I know the answer.. I take my guitars and playing as seriously as anything gun related-great hobby-
