      I doubt it. It will happen once the music world in general gives up the stigma that he aint that good cause he does pop. But everyone, even the most guitarhead, blues/rock lovers and mainstream pop haters know he is one of the best ever, and it hurts them deep

      @@polonC he’s considered the best of our generation, but the problem with our generation is its too underappreciated. our generation is the most proficient guitar generation there ever was but is sadly underrated because the guitar is dying in the current music scene. not to even mention we got some unknown guitarist who’s even more proficient than some greats before which proves my point more

    I am not so sure how people say that JM is underrated. He isn't, he is one of the truly gifted guitarists who has played with the greats of the generation. These include BB King, Buddy Guy, and has even earned critical acclaim from Eric Clapton. He is a gem, and is a holistic mix of all guitar genres.

      He’s underrated because a lot of music listeners who grew up in the 70s 80s and 90s refuse to acknowledge his talent for how amazing it really is

      I went and I thought I’d be super enthusiastic but truth be told you’re actually so shocked of how good he is live you just kinda admire. Easily the greatest music experience I’ve ever and will ever have.
