Scoring would be as follows:

55% soul/feeling
5%   technical prowess
25% originality
15% tone

Points subtracted for unnecessary speed.

I'd send Warren Haynes (Prince would fit in his pocket, by the way, Gib)  ;)

Wow... we are no longer speaking...

Here:


That's not the best quality, but you'll dig the intro to that song. See if you can place it, Mr. PrinceFan...  :P

Make sure to listen all the way to the second solo at least. Pay no mind to the faces. Maybe we should subtract for faces, too lol.

Derek Trucks plays so distintively from the crowd of guitarists (even when he isn't using the slide assist or when he isn't using alternative tunings).  It seems like he lives and breathe what he plays.  If he was a church guitarist, his playing could be called annointed.

That was great! I think it was the sea foam green Strat lol.

He traversed at least three distinct styles through that.

Here's what I don't understand, if there are gospel players out there like that, why does everyone make such a fuss of J. DuBose?

I know he wasn't mentioned yet, I'm just wondering (cause I know it's coming... well... it is now lol).

Nice vid, man.

Oh, and I agree with what you said about Derek. That's what I was hitting on in that other thread--there are so many talents around that could be very powerful workers for God if they had their stuff together. It makes me equal parts hopeful, and just flat-out-burdened for them.

Larry Carter is  close friend of mine, have played with him on numerous occasions. He's a great guy. The reason most people have never heard of him is because he is UPC, and unless you are UPC you're not going to hear about many of the very talented artists that they have because it is such a closed group.

Larry Carter is good and i like him.But, i do know if you can compare him to Dubose.Dubose have some nice cds out.play with best gospel artists out there.You saw him in the vid with Paula White.One thing i think would help Larry Carter,if he STOP singing.His calling is on the guitar,it is not   
 singing that is for sure.But,i like that vid.Thank for the post.Mr.S

You saw him in the vid with Paula White.

Right, and I saw a fair deal of mediocrity.

I'm not bashing, but I've yet to see a Dubose clip where I was like, "yeah, he's really stinking good." It's more like, "Eh... he's ok..."

I may be completely wrong. If you can point me to a clip that would move me, then great, I'll 180* and admit he's great, but he just doesn't grab me.

He's not bad, he's ok, but his playing doesn't really grab me.

I'd dial right past it if I were flipping through the radio stations.

That's all.
