          Thanks for sharing the info and those clips of Pat’s playing. I was not familiar with him but can appreciate what a great musician he was. My scope in jazz is limited to guys like Robben Ford or Larry Carlton and those who crossover from a blues style.

            Hey Mike
            Lot of great players in the jazz world that we never consider as we should. One such player was the great Herb Ellis – his jazz guitar sound had a lot of blues with a heavy touch of country music at times

            Be sure to check out my recent tribute to Duane Allman, October 29 marked 50 years since his untimely death

            RIP Duane Allman November 20, 1946 – October 29, 1971
