Hasn't Rolling Stone already done this list?

And Clapton at #2?

Typical. Popularity/influence...maybe. Greatest guitarists in history? No.

I'd have Buddy Guy over B B King. Hometown meatball. Cant see any argument with Hendrix as number 1. Keith Richards as 4 though??

Right. Cause if that's true, GREATEST guitarists, you have to think about Les Paul. And I'd take SRV over Clapton ANY DAY.

Les Paul & Stevie Ray deserve spots above Keith Richards & Pete Townshend, but that's as far as I'd go there.

B. B. King is an incomplete guitarist. Shouldnt be near the top ten in "General guitar" category

Joe Walsh and Carlos Santana should be on there

This was my initial thought. I have a lot of B.B. King stuff and have listened to him for the past 20 years but
never has the thought popped into my head, " he's one of the greatest of all time". Although not in the top
10, Robbie Robertson was a pretty damn good player as well.

Honestly, who did you guys think was going to be on the Rolling Stone list of Top Ten Guitarists of All Time or whatever? This is the same list as it was 20 years ago. It's the same list it's going to be 100 years from now.

Slash is floored by this. Also,Les Paul is King.
What about Ace Freehly and George Harrison?

Also Roy Clark and Glen Campbell.

pasta do you have any JORResque stories of partying with Slash and the GNR crew? Or maybe at least the Snakepit crew?

I was hoping for Dorian Tajbakhsh, Alan Jones, or Paul Caporino. Alas.

I met him twice,got invited to a private concert. Talked with him for about 3 minutes,that's it. He seemed like a nice guy.

I know, I thought this was the year for Tajbakhsh for sure. A tuba player has more chance of making it on that list than Joe Satriani or the guy from Dokken have of knocking Pete Townshend off of it.

Needs to be longer and involve more guys from the neighborhood and a ton more name dropping.
