Hey Sprocket, that Jeff Healey video reminds me of the first time I saw JH.  Sometime around 1985, he was just starting out, it was a club in Halifax, NS, Canada.  I was completely blown away.  It was the beginning of my long love affair with blues guitar.  I never saw anything like it at the time, and then I started to listen to lots of blues guitar after that.

The guy in the second video plays like a young Eric Clapton, or maybe I should say Eric Clapton played like this guy.  I wonder if he was one of ECs influences?  Great stuff.

Thats funny, I was a kid (bout 13) then and I used to listen to him, SRV and Zeppelin and never really realized I was listening to blues till I was much older 
I now realize, its probably because I had never really felt the blues at that age.

I started a thread a while back (I think called "amazing guitarist II") that featured Jack Pearson.  This (I think) is a different video than the one posted previously.  He is a Nashville cat who fronts his own band and also served a stint in the Allman Brothers.  He is equally at hope playing slide, jazz, rock, or blues and oftentimes mixes them up in his own unique stew.  I can't say enough about how stellar his playing is.  The following is an improvised section from the Gibson site.
