Santana- so simple, yet so soulful

Roy Buchanan

Dickey Betts

Duane Allman

Mark Knopfler

Hendrix

I think all of the above have a very unique sound. I don't care much for people that are so derivative of others. SRV smokes, but you know who his influence is. I wonder why Robin Trower didn't get the same respect SRV did?

Then there's a whole bunch of old electric blues guys- The 3 Kings, as already mentioned, there's a bunch more, but I'm getting brain lock.
