Other than CR it's the Paul's - anything by Paul Rodgers, Paul Carrack.

Then there's good ole Santana (earlier stuff rather than the newer ones), early to mid Pink Floyd, anything by Geoff Whitehorn, and the proverbial many many many others.

There is a tremedous blues singer/guitar player based in Atlanta Georgia called Andrew Black that I think is the cat's meow. He is not well known at all.

Oh...and I forgot Mark Knopfler. I saw him in concert in Vancouver at an intimate setting with his band. It was the last night of his tour. They put together 2 1/2 hours of amazing music. Hope he puts out a DVD.

Hello together,i wrote it in a other part of the Forum. The last days i often listen the two CD's from Paul Casey with the titel 'Modern Life Routines' and 'Songs In Open Tuning'. It was really not easy to get them, because you can buy it on amazon or other shops. I didn't know him before i saw that he makes the opening for Chris on the UK tour. i must say i like his kind of music.
If you like to listen to one song from 'Songs in Open Tuning' go to his site, where you can also buy the new CD. http://www.paulcaseymusic.com . Bye and Screw you and your deep-blue-sea.
