Actually one that took me by suprise was Andy Fairweather Low, he played in my local towns theatre and absolutely tore it up, with god like tone, he was playing a humbucker strat into a Cornell 'Duke' plexi type thing, absolutely blew me away!
Special shout out to Robert Cray. His guitar playing was great but his voice live was simply something else. Simply ene of the best voices I've ever heard.
I've also been disappointed at a couple gigs where what's on the record is great but live they don't really nail their own lines/solos.
I was watching some of their clips on YouTube the other day. Entirely by accident, I'd never heard of them but they're very good, very slick and professional. They seem to have two or three different singers, one of them was excellent.
I was a bit dismayed that whenever they showed the audience they were even older than me. Looked like Neil Warnock and his missus there for the Bingo.

They also do the Brit Floyd show which is better than the Aussie version.
Agree though, i'm nearly 40 and i've always beat the rest of the audience by at least 20 years!
Doug Marstch/Built To Spill the solo during 'Carry The Zero' and intro to 'Velvet Waltz' absolutely stunning! Electric Ballroom, Camden 2013.
James Dean Bradfield, solo for 'Archives of Pain' in fact everything off that album sounded f**king amazing live! he was truly on form that night, Holy Bible Tour, Wolverhampton Civic Hall, Oct 1994.
Tommy Emmanuel, because he's an awesome bloke as well as a prolific talent. . . The weather was so bad that night in Halifax . . a genuine snow blizzard . . . and Tommy literally thanked the late comers personally and clapped them in . . He also stayed on after the show to meet and greet and thank the audience for turning out for him. Top Man Tommy
Albert Lee, because he's Albert Lee, enough said, Mr Eric Clapton because Ive seen him twice and both times he was totally on it ! ! Stevie Ray Vaughan, even though I nearly threw my guitar in the bin after watching Live at the El Mocambo . . Steve Howe even though he seems a bit bonkers these days. Doyle Bramhall 2, Derek Trucks, John 5, Gary Clark Jr. Chris Shiflett, so much talent :-)
