“Mike Bloomfield is number one. Not only did he play over the top well – and I mean amazingly well – but he also played what I call 'real' guitar. If you've ever heard Mike Bloomfield, then you know what I'm talking about. It just came from his heart. I never got a chance to see him because he died at an early age, but he was a big influence on me as to the way I learned to bend strings and get everything I could out of a note. One of the best players ever.” – Mick Mars (Motley Crüe).
