Divine
11.25.11 | Agreed, InAbsentia |
Divine
11.25.11 | I mean, Peter Buck is an alternative icon, and to put him that low is like a slap to the face |
InAbsentia
11.25.11 | tbh I'm surprised Lil Wayne isn't on the list. |
TheNotrap
11.25.11 | But I believe Jimi Hendrix deserves to be #1 |
InAbsentia
11.25.11 | Nah |
FrankRedHot
11.26.11 | Do you ever think for yourself, or do you just let Spin and Rolling Stone tell you what to listen to? |
Divine
11.26.11 | It's debatable on the #1 spot |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | Neil Young # 17
Robert Fripp #62 hahahahahahahaha
And I assume that Steve Howe would be #101.

11.26.11 | @Jethro
When I had long hair I was not very different from this David Gilmour pic.
I choose this picture for that reason. And also cause he's my absolute fav guitar player. |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | hahaha! Depends on what. For instance, I overuse google traduction even if it doesnt show. But I guess you just typed her nick, InAbsentia. right? |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | Ah ok then Notrap, so we're not far from the truth. thanks for the info ;) |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Do you agree with Hendrix on #1? |
InAbsentia
11.26.11 | @Jethro: Exactly. But it's harder than you think. I also found this:
Thespian Lesbian:
Thespian Lesbian is any straight woman who acts attracted to or performs sexual acts on another woman for a camera or filming, especially for videos like "Girls Gone Wild." |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Ritchie Blackmore should be on top 20
David Gilmour should be on top 10
I respect Keith Richards but in my opinion he's too high |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Also George Harrison on 11#...Too high |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | @Notrap I couldn't disagree, that's for sure. Given I'm unable to pick my own #1, why not Hendrix! He's a god after all. |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Yes Hendrix was a good choice.
Probably the most iconic guitar player ever. |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | hahaha InAbsentia, I can easily trust you it's not that easy phewww! |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | Yeah Hendrix was probably considered like an alien back in the day. |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | True pioneer. |

11.26.11 | "Joana Newsom plays harp good"
She's my favorite artist in the world. I don't want to see her on this crappy list. |
Gmork89
11.26.11 | Apparently its been about 30 years since the world has seen a new good guitar player. |
sumyunguy
11.26.11 | 1) Alex Lifeson at 98? I'd be hard pressed to think of 10 guitarists better than him.
2) James Hetfield is on the list but Kirk Hammett isn't?
3) Cobain needs to not be on this list at all.
4) Fripp needs to be way higher than 62.
5) Ritchie Blackmore at 50? Should be more like 5.
6) Neil Young needs to not be on this list at all.
7) In what galaxy is Keith Richards a better guitar player than Eddie Van Halen?
8) Steve Howe not being on this list must be a joke.
9) And for good measure, Jimmy Page is better than Jimi Hendrix. Way better. |
ShadowRemains
11.26.11 | if sumwun argues with u are u gonna have a huge PMS bitch out like u usually do? |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Paco de LucÃa, Al Di Meola or Trevor Rabin should be here. |

11.26.11 | I don't think they listen to flamenco. |

11.26.11 | Yep |

11.26.11 | lol, i'm pretty sure people who argue with me are the ones who have PMS fits. |

11.26.11 | What Notrap said, and speaking of Jazz, Pat fucking Metheny |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | John fucking McLauglin, Mike fucking Stern, Scott fucking Henderson, |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Indeed.
Pat Metheny and John McLauglin also needed to be here.
I believe I don't know Mike Stern or Scott Henderson... |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | But I trust your word |
sumyunguy
11.26.11 | Mike Stern is a beast of a guitar player who played with Miles Davis in the 80's and looks remarkably like a skinnier Meat Loaf. |
sumyunguy
11.26.11 | Oh and Jethro, Mahavishnu is on here, 68. |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Thanks for the info dude.
Yes...McLauglin is here. Justice was made after all. |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Mark Knopfler is also to low IMO |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | And how "a panel of famous musicians and music experts" forgot to include Gary Moore? |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | Oh Mr the Mahavishnu is there, ok.
Here's a track I love by Scott Henderson. Arguably not his best guitar performance but w/e
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPkvNQfQiTg |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | Gary Moore and more and more... |
wabbit
11.26.11 | "6) Neil Young needs to not be on this list at all. "
lol this guy probably thinks keith richards is too high on the list too.
J mascis and thurston moore (lee should too) made the list so that pretty fucking awesome. |
JamieTwort
11.26.11 | List is missing arguably THE greatest guitarists of all time, Gary Moore. |
JamieTwort
11.26.11 | Also where's Steve Hackett? and Rory Gallagher is way too low. |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Indeed Gary Moore is a huge gap.
|
AutoRock
11.26.11 | Not having Paco di Lucia. Gary Moore and Al Di Meola makes this list pretty random, seeing how Keith Richards is on it. |
Tyrael
11.26.11 | '65 - Slash'
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA |
Tyrael
11.26.11 | This is just like that magazine that voted Lars Ulrich as the 40th best drummer of all time
lol |
NightProwler
11.26.11 | Lifeson, Allman and Johnson should be higher. |
Jethro42
11.26.11 | STEVE HACKETT, you're right, Jamie
No Andrew Latimer either of course. |
JamieTwort
11.26.11 | Yeah list needs Latimer too. |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Yes Steve Hackett deserved to be mentioned.
I know lot's of people hate the dude but Yngwie Malmsteen also belongs on a top 100 greatest guitarists. |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Like I've said above the concept of "Greatest Guitarist" is pretty generic here.
Bruce Springsteen? |
TheNotrap
11.26.11 | Hahhaa
Yes you're an underrated guitar master dude. |

01.31.12 | more like rolling stone's greatest joke |

Both rank among my faves. Hard to say that one is superior to the other. |

And yet, Slash is ranked above him. The horror!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
mandan
03.05.13 | MacLaughlin should be at least on the top 10, it's insanely difficult to reach his level of mastery. |
