Fingerpicking on an electric guitar with a slide. That is why it sounds so unique. Multiple fingers picking on the same and different strings.
Others who fingerpicking on an electric guitar are,
Mark Knopfler
Jeff Beck
Lindsey Buckingham
Robby Krieger (The Doors)
Hey, if we're going to start talkin' smoking hot southern rock bands, let's throw the renowned and talented Allman Brothers Band into the mix, no?
And they have no shortage of really good hits, jams, instrumentals - you name it - they did it all.
It's not even Lynyrd Skynyrd's best song.
No.

No. Lick my balls.

https://youtu.be/J8MEqBVYcVE?t=262thats a quality video right there! if that were my kid she would have earned herself the keys to the Trans Am for friday night. you go Rebecca. Reminds me of the Chinese kid who played every single instrument in Hotel California and blew up the internet.
That is just fantastic. Someone in the word, there is a proud father who watches that video at least once a day. Rock on.
35 years from now, Rebecca is going to ask her teenaged kids if they want to see a video and their lives will never be the same...
Damn what a video--not a bra in sight. The 70s ruled
Man, Billy Powell was such a beast. Pull-tab Budweiser on top of a white grand piano. Just pure class.
"If I leave here tomorrow,
Would you still remember me?..."
Hell, yeah!

I remembering seeing a poll of best guitarists ever and 3 of the top 5 were in one band - the Yardbirds. Pretty amazing. Beck, clapton and page.

Fingerpicking on an electric guitar, with a slide, is 'Unique'?
Have you ever heard a song called "Layla"?
Guess who fingerpicks the slide guitar part on that classic.
Duane Allman.
His partnering with Eric Clapton for that album is truly inspiring, a true testament to their love of the their art.
There is a very touching video on You Tube about it entitled "Eric Clapton - Derek & The Dominos and the making of "Layla" with Duane Allman." Check it out.

One poll had Duane Allman as the second best guitarist ever.

Not to hijack the thread, but this discussion got me pulling up many of these songs and giving them a prolongued listen. My, could Duane ever play! Songs like "Blue Sky," "Whipping Post", "One Way Out", - lordy, they are just the smoothest and masterfully executed.
Hey, the good news is that there was so much good music being made then, and what a treasure it is.
Definitely a time when we were discovering rocks roots in the blues and the south was where it was happening in a big big way.
