    I used to go to school and play football with this guy. Always destined for good things, plays the guitar like an absolute messiah. The crowds response is ridiculous, such an amazing talent not being fully recognised. You get people idolising 'musicians' that can't actually sing when Ben puts his heart and soul into to his music and is 1000x more talented than people like them. Keep up the good work mate, you are amazing at what you do, I hope you live the dream, you deserve it. Love this rendition of Jimi's classic too, this is what real music is all about.

      +Man_In_A_Pram touche, touche... I can't. BUT I like to believe all of the blues greats that have passed would be proud of any young musician keeping blues alive. Blues is a dying musical style, and kids like Ben here are saving that music for the future generations to learn from and enjoy too. Also, as a musician, it is always flattering when someone draws inspiration from you, and it's blatantly obvious SRV and Jimi were huge influences for Ben... But no, who knows, they might've been pissed to hear this, I just really doubt it.

    I am 56 and have seen Ben perform many times.Unfortunately its the same old story when it comes to Blues/rock in that the crowds are normally an older generation and many are loyal or should I say stuck in the late 60,70 and 80s blues rock scene so its like cracking a nut .Ben is the best thing out of Britain in the last 20 years in this genre.

      I don't see it. Fast playing doesn't make great music. Listen to Roy Buchanan's version from 1976 and you'll see where Ben got it from. I didn't like Roy's version either. That's why they're not ecstatic. Body Count, with Ice-T of all people, did a better interpreatation and owned the song.
