Bottom line though,Jimi hendrix called him his favorite guitarist before he was ever in ZZ Top and that's good enuff for me.

Most of the time, discussions about guitarists will gravitate to the virtuoso types. The Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen types. Each of those guys are incredible, but they can't hold down a groove like Billy and his amazing interpretations of the blues. Just a fantastic player with great tone.
