Matt Murphy had a stroke a few years ago and I don't think he can play anymore.

I don?t like very much Tropea because isn?t very blues.....is more rock and he doesn?t fit in some songs..... but I like Tropea?s guitar in Big Bird....

You're right,I had the same impression when he played guitar solo in shootgun blues,he dosn't have a real blues feeling.But when he play happier songs is really great
