When Mick Taylor left the Rolling Stones because Keith Richards just couldn't accept the fact that Mick was a better guitarist than him, the world had high hopes for him. He was supposed to become what Eric Clapton became. A lucrative solo career seemed inevitable for the blues maestro, but he fell short of the expectations. His quiet and humble nature may have had something to do with that. God forbid an artist is just about the music and doesn't have a larger than life persona to overshadow it.
Does this make him any less amazing of a musician? Give a listen and decide for yourself. I think you know where I stand.
