I realize this music is VASTLY different, but that intrepid New York guitarist Leslie West just put out a new album covering Dylan songs. He teamed up with Ozzie Osborne to do Masters of War – very powerful.
Have you ever noticed that when Lu and the band start jamming, sometimes they can get into a trance like heavy rhythm that would rival any metal band? Just one more thing that makes her so unique!
New here, but I just had to put in my 2 cents worth….Pettibone is an awesome guitarist, and I have to agree with Tim’s sentiment. I also agree with ILI. However, the 2 opinions are not comparable, and they’re both idiots for gettig into a pissing match! Yes, all the axe slingers ILI mentioned are legends, but could you imagine any of them playing with Lu and getting the same feel and tone across as Pettibone? What makes Pettibone so great is his ability and willingness to play behind Lu. He brings out the best in her without drawing attention to himself. Sometimes he leads, sometimes he hangs back, and sometimes he just plain takes over! On the technical side, he’s a master at phrasing. Nothing he does is complex, but it’s the mark of a master to do the simple thing at the exact right moment. I never get tired of listening to him (or Lu). The only “legend” guitarist I would be intereted in seeing play with Lu is Keef. He’s another master at staying in the backround while making everything happen simply.
