An excellent player with a taste for the baroque, Ritchie Blackmore is well in the top flight.
Which famous session man and former member of the Wildcats gave Blackmore and Steve Howe (Yes) guitar lessons?
Who taught Blackmore (and a lot of others) stagecraft and what was the name of his band?
The Prize is the Air Guitar of your choice.

Fret, I don't know this one. Maybe somebody else will. I was under the impression Ritchie studied classical guitar, and that's the background that made him feel comfortable playing with orchestras, etc. - and, also, had some influence when he chose to go the Renaissance route toward the last part of his career. Another thing is, I'm not real familiar with English sessions musicians - more so with those in the U. S.. Whoever, he certainly did a good job, but then, he was working with raw natural talent. If nobody gets it - declare a go-ahead to look it up and I'll give you an answer, comments, photo, video . . . mucho fun stuff. ;D

There is a clue there...... 'Wildcats' Think Robin Hood........
