Sorry if it offends, but I could never see his attraction as a player. The wild blues thing was done by Freddie King and Buddy Guy, the stage presence antics done by T bone Walker and Hendrix, great that he Stole from them all for one package
I used to think he was amazing when I was 18 and duly wore out my EL mocambo VHS, but he's not somebody I listen to know, like you say the blues has it's limitations and you move on. But personally I'd only have to hear a few notes of him playing to know it was him, so he's obviously something different from the sum of the guitarists you listed. He even started his own wannabe SRV movement and they all sound like him but none of them sound like Freddie King or Buddy Guy, so he can't have stolen everything.....
Also amazing is Grace Potter and Satch - Cortez the killer. All the artists start looking surprised at their own rendition.

just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
And SRV was just a poor man's Rory G.
Aaaah man I hope that was sarcasm!!! ;-) I'm also a HUGE Gallagher fan but I really don't think the two could be evenly compared. Two completely different players. Both brilliant thiugh

I fully agree about RT. For me it would apply equally to David Gilmour, Andy Summers, Larry Carlton, Roy Buchanan and many others.
