His classy twang first popped up on their 1967 album Younger Than Yesterday, came through loud and clear on 1968's Sweetheart of the Rodeo and only grew more important as the band delved further into country rock. White's fame among players was sealed with his co-invention of the Parsons/ White StringBender, which enables a regular guitar to simulate a pedal steel. But in 1970, with the Mac on the verge of super-stardom, Green quit the band, saying he needed to escape the evils of fame. In the early days of Rage Against the Machine, Morello watched local California metal guitarists play "as fast as Yngwie Malmsteen" and realized, "That wasn't a race I wanted to ru. So he began to experiment with the toggle switch on his guitar to produce an effect like a DJ scratching a record. The result was true rap metal and a redefinition of the guitar's potential.

So pervasive was Gate's sway that Green and his ninth-grade pal Roy Gaines used to stage mock guitar battles imitating their idols (Gaines was a T-Bone Walker disciple) at various Houston bars. Cal didn't have to leave the house to find worthy competition; his older brother Clarence was also an accomplished picker who cut a load of killer instrumentals (notably 1962's Red Light) for small Lone Star label. Few blues guitarists can boast the varied résumé of Texas native Cal Green. From blues to doo wop to jazz, Green has played 'em all, and done each idiom proud in the process. An acclaimed but tough-to-find 1988 album for Double Trouble, White Pearl, showed conclusively that Green still knew his way around the blues on guitar. On July 6, 2004, he passed away at his California home.

Even the very best jazz guitarists rarely receive the attention of the genre’s horn players, so give it up for the 50 best jazz guitarists ever. His biggest mainstream breakthrough was the innovative album Jazz Samba, recorded in tandem with saxophonist Stan Getz in 1962, which fused jazz improv with sinuous Brazilian rhythms and instantly put him on the map as one of the world’s best jazz guitarists. Byrd’s sound, with its finger-picked gossamer filigrees, is a unique one in jazz. This list is actually very good, mentioning Jimmy Raney, Johnny Smith, Freddie Green, Grant Green, West Montgomery, and George Benson, even John Pizzarelli, although I do not recall seeing Bucky Pizzarelli, one of the finest of all time, on the list.

Last night was my first night to eat at restaurant and see a show in the music hall. Richard was our waiter and he took very good care of us. Food was excellent. I’ll come back just to eat in restaurant. I did pay extra to bypass the line for the show and never needed it. A staff member took us in the Foundation Room so we didn’t have to stand in heat.
