Clapton or Hendrix

[Dave's Bitch]

Im a Clappers fan myself

[superdave]

Hendrix hands down--Clapton boring at best

[academic punk]

Hendrix.

Though Clapton's playing on things like "Bell Bottom Blues" and "Motherless Children" is peerless, he's still overall the most boring guitarist, songwriter, interview, and multi-millionaire rock star ever.

[Soul Reaper]

Clapton was good with Cream, but nothing that good after that.

Hendrix kicks his ass any day.

[Dave's Bitch]

I never really thought hendrix was too great,he was good and thats a fact but i personally think it was more a case of right place right time,at actually playing the guitar i dont think hendrix is anymore great than the likes of EVH and Slash

[Hardrock69]

Ahhh ya got to realize the times he was in....99% of guitarists at that time sounded like the Thamesmen (The 60's band that was an early version f Spianl Tap).

They played this plinky-plinky fucking guitar that sucked ass.

Hendrix came along an completely re-defined the art of electric guitar playing.

Hendrix...hands down.

EVH and Slash would be the first to tell ya they cannot begin to compare to what Hendrix could do (and often did).

[Dave's Bitch]

hmmmmm.i guess but like i said i still stick to the right place right time thing,i meen if hendrix were to come alonng now i bet a million $ he wouldnt be anyway neer as popular

[Terry]

Hendrix, even in the condition he's in today, walks all over Clapton.

[rob100]

Hendrix, definitely.

Slash??? What is there to like about Slash?

[Dave's Bitch]

the fact that he is without question THE guitarist of the last 20 years

[Hardrock69]

I originally was not really impressed with Slash.

However, one of my fave hangouts in L.A. was the Late, Great...FM STATION!!!!!

So anyway I went there one Monday to see a favorite band BB Chung King & The Screaming BuddaHeads...

The dude fronting it was a Japanese-American named Alan Murikitani, who had a killer singing voice, and guitar chops that would impress Stevie Ray Vaughan. SERIOUS electric blooze player.

So anyway, I got into the club, and Slash was sitting at the bar. I said hello and went over to a table to sit and watch the blooze fireworks.

So after awhile, Alan mentions he is going to get a friend up to jam....sure enough Slash got up there and did a version of the old 60's rock tune "Going Down".

He fucking terrorized me with the shit he played.

He is a motherfucker.

But Hendrix was, and always WILL BE, badder then 10-HUNDRED MOTHERFUCKERS.

End of story.

[Last_Child]

HENDRIX!!!

[DrMaddVibe]

Hendrix.

You could put Clapton against Rick Springfield and I'd STILL not vote for Clapton.

He wants to be known for being a bluesman, but look at him! That fuck has drained more money out of the system than any 20 blues greats made combined! Then look at the heartless, emotionless writings? What a fuckwit!

Robert Johnson he ain't!

Here's some good Clapton songs though...

"I Got The Kid Fell Outta My Skyscraper Building Blues"

"Devil Is In My Maserati"

"I'm Really Black, But I Talk Like Prince Charles!"

"I Like Fish"

"Secondhand Love - Ode To George Harrison"

"Gimmie Some Other Schlep I Can Ripoff"

"Blues Ain't Dead, I Jus' Plays 'Em Poorly"

"Crackerman Blues"

"Me Wanna Be A Beatle"

"Take My Seat Stevie"

I gots a ton of 'em!!!!

A-cha-cha-cha!!!!

[DaLeeRo]

HENDRIX!!!!

I don't like Clapton at all....

[UGS]

Clapton

Hardrock is right tho, Slash deffinetely burns the fuckin house down everytime he plays. Amazing sense of melody, his solos bring songs to whole new levels.
