      eddie , obv , jeff beck and joe satriani

      brian may has his moments

      hendrix was occasionally amazing

      holdsworth reminds me of vai - lots of flash with not much substance

        you wanna hear real guitar buy blow by blow and wired by jeff beck

        don't get much better than that

        and no synthesizers , editing tricks

        beck would just go into the studio , plug his strat in and whammo , play like a fucking genius

        he's the gratest living rock guitarist , no contest

                  ed's god given talent is chugging brewskies. Rhodes was a solid player. No fancy shit, agreed. But solid. Malmsteen and Vai I liken to show offs. Too fast, no solid playing. But they are amazing still. Fun to watch.

                      it's thanks to eddie that we had a revolution in rock guitar , before that we were happy with idiots like blackmore , eddie kicked rock up its collective ass

                      listen to him letting rip on im the one , 3 solos , maybe even 4 in 3 minutes

                      fuck , can he play

                      evh is the hendrix of his generation

                          james burton is a sweet guitarist too , his work with the king was amazing

                          i also quite like tom scholz's stuff with boston

                          jimmy page was amazing on record , not so hot live , his solo on 'achilles last stand' is still one of the all time greats imo

                            Boston is/was alright. Good groove. Nothing close to innovative though. IMO. Blackmore was so fucking boring, when compared to Ed or Page. I was never really into Led Zep though. Dont know Burton.

                              I agree with this list 110% aside from Shawn Lane, as I have no idea who the guy is.

                              I think this is a pretty goofy question in the first place. What James Honey-moon Scott brought to the pretenders, NO ONE could have. Then again, only andres segovia could be andres segovia. You wouldn't put Segovia in as a stand-in for Kurt Cobain, and vice-versa. Everyone contributes and innovates in thier own way. It's not about anything other than expressing YOURSELF.

                              (that being said, Jeff Beck is pretty fuckin' shit hot)
