Ok, here is Dave Kilminster. Search around on YouTube and you will find loads of his stuff. I really hope to play guitar like him someday.

D'Gary is awesome! Thanks for that, have now ordered the CD on impulse.

Dick Gaughan a Scottish folk singer with Irish roots, always go to see him when he comes to the local folk club. I don't know why he is not famous, guitar work is sublime and a firm favourite with the late, great John Peel.

This is a bit of a rebel song but worth a listen for the guitar work.

I've recently discovered Dave Nachmanoff. Here he is with Al Stewart having fun with The Year Of The Cat:
