DeanCollins Posted November 4, 2005 Author Share Posted November 4, 2005 All the guys you mentioned are great. Might I suggest you check out Derek Trucks (if you haven't already) deffinately, I saw Derek in '94 when he was 16?. He makes a good case for re-incarnation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 John McLaughlin VERY good call. Mahavishnu Orchestra produced two of the top musicians in American History. Billy Cobham on drums, and John Mclaughlin on guitar. He is like Jimi Hendrix with a vast knowlege of jazz. What a badass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big#44 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 That's why I mentioned him. I mean I'm as big a Page, Hendrix and (probably my REAL fave) Eddie Van Halen fan out there. But Lifeson is just overlooked because of Neil's drumming. I think he's the most overlooked guitar player in history. Anybody uninformed about this cat check out "Working Man", "Anthem", "La Villa Strangiato"Hell, how many dozens of songs does he absolutely tear up? :no: So true i you even gotta throw out the popular songs like "Limelight" and "The Spirit of Radio". Heck even "Freewill" "Closer to the Heart", or "The Trees". I could go on forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busch1724 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 For me it comes to taste. I don't care about technical ablility, although it helps to get an idea across. There's so many favs of mine, but my favorite two that I always go back too are Eddie Van Halen and Frank Hannon of Tesla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeorama Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 I totally agree about Alex Lifeson. He DOES get overlooked because of Neil Peart, but he's definately one of the best of all time. My band is playing Tom Sawyer and Limelight and the solo's in both songs are odd, yet perfect for those songs, no one could have written anything better. I love his use of the higher strings on rhythm parts rather than just chugging along on the lower string like so many others do. He's very original definatley one of my favorite players.

I'm actually pleasently shocked at all the love being given to Lerxst. I've always found the intricate melodies by the team of Dave Murray and Adrian Smith incomperable.

Hog Fever Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 There are a lot of guitar players I like. Here are a few: Steve Vai (both solo and with Zappa and Roth) Ablert Collins, The Master of the Telecaster and one of the greatest blues showman ever RIP.

Chris Lamb Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Mine has got to be Brad Nowell from Sublime. He was pretty amazing, especially in the bootlegs. Except of course when he was drunk, but he was still pretty good drunk too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
