I Want to Take You Higher! It's interesting that out of all the blues-rock guitar gods that emerged from the U.K. scene in the early sixties from Keith Richards to Eric Clapton to Jimmy Page to Peter Green to Mick Taylor to Peter Townshend to Ritchie Blackmore, Jeff was the most avowedly influenced by American funk. Evidently Jeff had an epiphany of sorts when he first heard "Green Onions" by Booker T & the MGs.
