No two ways about it, the most influential slide guitarist of the postwar period was Elmore James, hands down.
Although his early demise from heart failure kept him from enjoying the fruits of the '60s blues revival as his
contemporaries Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf did, James left a wide influential trail behind him. And that influence
continues to the present time -- in approach, attitude and tone -- in just about every guitar player who puts a slide on
his finger and wails the blues. As a guitarist, he wrote the book, his slide style influencing the likes of Hound Dog Taylor,
Joe Carter, his cousin Homesick James and J.B. Hutto, while his seldom-heard single-string work had
an equally profound effect on B.B. King and Chuck Berry...(All Music Guide)
