martin barre


Maybe not the first name to come to mind when talking about the top UK guitarists but Martin Lancelot Barre is right up there. He's been working with Jethro Tull since 1969 and along with Ian Anderson the only members from then to still tour with the group. He's planning his own tour for 2012. 
The man played some mean blues riffs on Tull's second release 'Stand Up'. Here is 'Driving Song' from the album. Happy birthday Martin.
