As you should know Matt Murphy is not involved with the band anymore,and is place is taken by John Tropea.when i heard that I say "Blasphemy!" but then I saw him in concert and he was really amazing,really really good.I'd like to ear the opinion of other person who had the chance to see it.In my opinion he is great...

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

do you think he had serious damage?There is no way to find out exactly what are is conditions?

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
