Agree Jay, fabulous musician

Love his Audioslave stuff but, RATM were, and still are a very unique band. He's got a solo project going called The Nightwatchman......very political though.

Of course, but if you want to maintain cred you have to call it 'vinyl'. I love those pinched harmonics.

Hank Marvin, Rick Parfitt, Gary Moore, Eric Clapton,Jeff Beck, thats all I can think of ,off the top of my head. I can come up with more though later.

5 pages of reply's and no one has picked THE best guitarist ever. A man who singlehandedly inspired millions to pick up a Gibson... Angus Young....

I see Ritchie Blackmore has been mentioned a few times. Check out this video of Rainbow from 1977, Kill The King

Surely one of the best rock songs ever written, played by one of the best rock bands ever, sung by THE best singer ever to walk this earth......RJD
