I have to admit when I first came across this band on You Tube, I thought that it was either a joke or a Al Yankovic parody – I mean, really………Snowy White????
After I listened to this song that I’m posting here, the man has a serious touch on the guitar. Considering that Pink Floyd hired him as a backing guitarist and had played with Thin Lizzy, he has to be good.
He isn’t flashy like some and in many ways, one might compare him to David Gilmour.

It supposed to be auctioned soon
