ALBERT KING:
* Truly one of the ''King of Blues,'' he continues to be one of the most important influences on blues and rock guitar players today; without him modern guitar music would not sound as it does
* King played left-handed without re-stringing the guitar from the right handed set-up. This ''upside down'' playing accounts for his difference in tone since he pulls down on the same strings most players push up on when bending the blues notes
* His style is immediately distinguishable from all other blues guitarists; he is one of the most important musicians to ever pick up the electric guitar
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN:
* With his astonishingly accomplished guitar playing, Vaughan ignited the blues revival of the '80s, drawing equally from bluesmen, rock 'n' roll players and jazz guitarists
* He developed a uniquely eclectic and fiery style that sounded like no other guitarist had since the late '60s; he was a leading light in American Blues whose albums regularly went gold... until his tragic death in 1990
