...yeh, that's IT--LAZY--just like Clapton is known as "slow-hand"...have a look see at johnny winter, robt. johnson, cream, page, richards, vai, elmore james, muddy waters, magic-slim, willie higgins, duane allman...yeh, they were all LAZY...you're absolutely correct...most of them were/are also VERY rich, well-respected, and quite accomplished...you got something against LAZY?...I mean, sure, it doesn't work so well at the gym, but being "laid-back" on stage or in the studio can really come across as intense.
