I have mentioned his name in a couple of posts in the past. I am a big Robben Ford fan. He is probably my favorite living guitarist.

I just started learning some of his stuff, man he is brilliant. He's very under rated and more of a guitarit's guitarist. If that makes any sense. He has been playing a lot recently with another of my favorites - Larry Carlton. He has played with a list of artists too long to mention right now.

I have been a big fan of his for more than 20 years.

He has played with Phil and Friends on at least one occasion in CA. and I would love to get a recording of one of those shows.

Anyone else know him of him or a fan of his?

I have and like the album Talk to Your Daughter, but can't say I know too much more. No denying he's a hell of a player. Any suggestions for further listening?

of course anything he has done is great but if you can listen to Robben ford and the blue line I am sure you will enjoy it. Check out some videos on his site.

Here is an interesting discography, He used to play with little feat too. I dont know if he was just a studio musician or played any live gigs with them.

THere are many albums he is on not in that list as well. You can see him on you tube as well.

This has nothing to do with the original post but you know who is generally overlooked as a guitarist? Clarence White. He was a wonderful guitarist. He played with the Byrds for a while and he also played in the bluegrass band Muleskinner with Peter Rowan and Dave Grissman, which I highly recommend.

Yes he was good. He's dead isn't he?

I haven't heard much Robben Ford, just the song 'Talk to your Daughter', he plays(ed) an unusual Fender guitar if I recall. I really like Clarence White (Jerry called him one of his favorites too) and the 70's version of the Byrds. He was killed loading out his gear at a club by a drunk driver. He also played an unusual Fender guitar, a Tele with a double width body with the Parsons/White string bender on it.
