One of my favorite guitarists

That would happen to be Steve Gaines.

I always loved that "Chicken Pickin" Stratocaster sound that he brought to Lynyrd Skynyrd when he joined them in 75-76

I Know a Little (Steve Gaines not L.S.)

Thanks for the link! I´ve always liked his work with Skynyrd.

Yes, I would certainly agree. That guy was a great player. It was one of the things that I really liked about Lynard Skynard. I learned so much from listening to that guy. ... still trying to play some of those lines from "I Know a Little" I really like the way he makes his lines sound so smooth even with all the chromatic things he puts in. He makes it sound so effortless.

Great playing style. I like that style. He was quite influential on many players after him.

Rest in peace.
