Just listening to his 'Sailing To Philadelphia' albumn at work day. I so love his guitar work and lyrics. His solos are so smooth and I think he's got one of the best guitar tones around.
If you haven't taken the time to hear his stuff go find it and get hooked. You'll easily be able to pick out his guitar whenever you hear him play.

Bit of trivia, he played lead guitar on Bob Dylan's "Slow Train Coming".  His playing on that album was very fluid, esp. on "Precious Angel".  Have you got his latest Shangri-La? I reckon it's neck & neck with Sailing... for being my favourite of his solo albums.  The Ragpicker's Dream was just a bit naff.  Great playing but writing songs about "quality shoes" is not my idea of good music.
