Yep, all those guys rock!! The things Ben Harper does on a weissenborn, wow. And Robert Randolph on a pedal steel? Mind boggling.
I have a version of "amzing grace" that Allman did. Damn near cry every time I hear it.
While we're talking about it, might as well add dobro in...
jerry Douglas (now of Alison krauss and union station) kicks a$$

I saw Robert Randolph open for Dave Matthews Band a few years ago!
Awesome!

Probably Duane Allman, his slide work on Layla was fantastic.
