For me it begins and ends with Al DiMeola. I had the pleasure of meeting him when he played at the Blue Note Cafe in the Village, and although I shook his hand I did not receive any "Al Transferrance." I did not play like him when I got home. LOL
I've always liked Joe Satriani, Stevie Ray, Clapton, Eddie VanHalen... they all have different styles and are great in their own way.
