Roy Rogers was an amazing slide guitarist and represented the Delta Blues well. Producer of four of John Lee Hookers's albums, he knows to surround himself with top-notch, solid musicians and that's exactly what he did with Steve & Jimmy. Roy is authentic and was not fooling around when it came to playing. He realized his time was limited and squeezed as much music in as he could. He was able to coax some sounds out of his guitar that you'd never think possible. With a mix of old blues standards and originals, Roy got the crowd rocking and made for another great blues recording.

From Roy Rogers' Wiki page:

Roy Rogers (born July 28, 1950, Redding, California) is an American slide guitarist and record producer. He was named after the singing cowboy, Roy Rogers. Rogers plays a variety of guitar styles related to the Delta blues, but is most often recognized for his virtuoso slide work.

He also produced two Grammy nominated recordings for Ramblin' Jack Elliott entitled "Friends of Mine" and "A Long Ride."
