How many times is Rolling Stone going to recompile this list? In a related story, I was cheering the self immolation of Jann Wenner last month. That guy has done more to perpetuate tired dad rock than anyone currently in existence. |

23 James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett Um what? Kirk is the lead guitarist. James plays the same riffs uncle Johnny can play in his garage. Dimebag Darrell 131 WTF! B.B. King should be 5 on THIS list. |

Aside from the obligatory Jimi Hendrix at number 1, this looks to be mostly random as far as the ranked order. Lot of questionable entries. Lot of greats unmentioned. No Terry Kath? No Jeff Healey? Pretty shitty list overall. |

Just for the history, you have to have Les Paul somewhere on the list. On the flip side, no way is Cobain top 100. Terry Kath and Martin Barre belong. Slash is on there at 105. Morello probably belongs, but is way too high. |

I think the idea of ranking guitarists is kind of absurd. Comparing Elizabeth Cotten to Jeff Beck is like comparing a skateboard to a nuclear submarine. They're both cool ways to travel, but I don't know how you say one is better than the other. |

I guess this list has achieved its goal since we're discussing it. |
