    Been listening and playing blues all my life. My son is named after SRV. In my opinion Josh is one of the greatest blues guitarists of all time. For me alongside Derek Trucks probably the best living blues guitarist. So humble. So delicate. Such a beautiful touch. Sophisticated phrasing. And that tone is just other worldly. He has it all.

      Absolutely. He is one of the greatest of all time. And Derek Trucks! Glad someone else feels that way too

      @@kvnboudreauxI deeply appreciate kingfish (-!: I’m a proper old school blue sky. SRV, Albert King, BB, Freddy, Albert Collins, etc.), but king Fish has far fewer dimensions to his style Josh. Kingfish has all the raw emotion. Josh had so much it’s unreal

    This is probably the best track i ever listened to regarding the blues. I had the opportunity to have a full consert in a small place in Norway a couple of years ago with you, and i was sold.
    I was afraid no one could carry the torch of beeing a great artist in this music genre among the "next" generation.
    But dont worry... Josh Smith, you fill those shoes.
    Ps: a couple of spelling errors, but you are amazing.

    Hands Down. Josh is the Finest Blues Slinger walking the Planet right now! That’s my opinion-but I bet Stevie Ray is up there nodding his head too! Josh has it all going on. The speed of Eric Johnson, the soul of Albert King. And the fire of Stevie Ray

    0:48 I adore this lick but seriously I'm years away from this kind o' skillziez! I love this lick at 1:25. It's easy to follow but I feel like the dunce of the class, sitting up the back leaning back on my chair so the back touches the wall and the 2 front legs are airborne. Subbing!

    Fantastic job Josh!!!
    Just like Stevie was passed the torch by Albert King, it's time for Josh Smith to carry it now!!! Hoorah!!
