Paul Gilbert is best known as a hard rock and heavy metal shredder. But on his latest album "Behold Electric Guitar" released May 17, 2019 through Music Theories label, he shows how versatile player Gilbert is.
"I wanted to write a song with good blues melodies and riffs. I had been listening to a lot of Johnny Hodges’ jazz and blues saxophone playing for inspiration. Johnny’s nickname was “Rabbit,” so this song is for him."
His "Blues for Rabbit" blues song reminds best years of Albert Collins or Stevie Ray Vaughan.
