Been listening to Jorma for more than 50 years . Specially the early live album with Cassidy ." Hesitation blues" is one of my favorite ones to play on the guitar and let me tell you I sweated a lot before being able to play it correctly note for note. But if you want to play blues guitar , this is the paragon you have to aim at. Jorma is one of the finest acoustic blues player in the world!
