Prompted by Sals ‘Cry’ post below I was reminded of one of those overused rock aphorism’s, ‘He can make it cry’ when describing a particularly effective guitar passage, usually the solo. I am sure I’ve recognised this in music many times, but I can only think of one example where the guitar does actually ‘cry’ – step forward Mr Kossoff – (particularly at 2min 30secs).
Are there any other examples I should be aware of?
Call off the search – Jeff’s here:

He’s here as well:

Of course – I should have guessed, Mr Jeff Beck.
Thank you Mr N T Bald.
My pleasure, A’dog. I have the DVD of that gig (a post-op indulgence purchase), and never tire of extolling its virtues.
Saw him on that tour, with Vinnie and Tal. Amazing.
For the encore, Dave Gilmour came on and they played a long slow version of Jerusalem, followed by a rare performance of Hi Ho Silver Lining.

Roy Buchanan. Afterhours and a bunch of others too
Singing’s a bit ropy…but oh, that guitar…
