      One of the most idiotic comments of all time considering that in the 1980s Mickey Thomas of Jefferson Starship/Starship was hailed by critics as one of the best male vocalists in rock history. I think your generation has a fetish for the word "underrated," as you toss it carelessly around on RUclips; but one thing is for damned sure: you are so lazy as not to check the more basic facts on questions such as these, as quickly as you are to put your foot in your mouth to titillate your tonsils.

      To date, since Elvin's hit went to #3 on the chart in '76, I have not heard anyone match or even come close to Bishop's blues guitar solo in his original hit release. Maybe Eric Clapton, or Blues greats BB or Freddie King can do him justice,... and there are scores of great guitarists that may try, but I think Elvin still wears this crown, IMHO.
