Never thought of him as much of one, but every man to himself.
Speaking of Tele players, Joe Strummer was waaaay underrated! The way he attacked his guitar, especially on the recent Live At Shea Stadium, was just unbelievable |

Rory Gallagher,Roy Buchanan,Uli Roth,Les Dudek,David Bromberg,Michael Bloomfield,Jesse Ed Davis,Danny Gatton,Frank Marrino,David Chastain,the 3 guys in "The Hellacasters"... all killers that most folks have never even heard of. Even lots of the guys that are members of this very site will say:
"Who's Les Dudek and Jesse Ed Davis?"
Guys that lots of people know but still don't get the Credit they deserve:
Ritchie Blackmore, Michael Schenker,Gary Moore,Pete Townshend,Prince,Tony Iommi,Mark Knopfler all deserve more recognition than they get. |

I would say Nils Lofgren too, but in fact more than underrated, he is more enough known. All people that witnesses his playing on both acoutic and electric class him immediately TOP NOTCH !!!
Nils on acoustic : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBq7XRa6uZM
Nils on electric : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv33a8bqjXI
So I say Oshio Kotaro is an underrated guitarist. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0Iy7pQ6_88
No... in fact he may be just like Nils Lofgren. Just not enough well known.
So say Bruce Springsteen. Yeah, Bruce Springsteen can be a very good guitarist when he wants too pull it out. |

Mick Ronson
most definitely one of the most overlooked players around, yet when you ask many of the greats who there early influences were - this name comes up!

The first two people that come to mind are Mike Bloomfield and Muddy Waters.
Mike Bloomfield never seems to get the attention he deserves as a premier, soulful, searing blues guitar player. Truly an inspiration!
Muddy Waters for his slide guitar - It's hard to imagine anyone disputing Muddy's place as a blues legend, but his slide playing gave me chills - unparalleled by anyone else's slide playing - yet, like Bloomfield, he rarely, if ever, gets a mention.
One more that I can think of right now is Jerry Reed. I find his playing mesmerizing and full of humor and humanity. I've only recently gotten into his playing, but there's much there to learn from. |
