Stevie Ray Vaughan was without doubt one of the worlds' most influential electric blues guitarists. In 2003 - 13 years after his untimely death in an air crash - "Rolling Stone" magazine ranked Stevie Ray number 7 in their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. Robin Bibi, one of the great British blues players, boasts a musical pedigree that includes Ben E. King, Jimmy Page, The Pretty Things, Robert Plant ….and even Helen Shapiro! Apart from his own impressive compositions, Robin is also known for reproducing accurate delivery of classics from the likes of Jimi Hendrix and early Fleetwood Mac. He’s now turned his attention to Stevie Ray Vaughan, something that no lesser guitarist would dream of attempting!
