Let's not forget Dave Mustaine. That crazy fuck defined metal with "Rust In Peace".

08-03-2006, 10:04 AM

I'm surprised Eddy Van Halen hasn't been mentioned more here.

Other axe men of note:

Rik Emmet (of Triumph)
Tom Scholtz (Boston)
Peter Frampton (Frampton comes alive!)
Neal Schon (Journey)

You all will probably laugh at me, but I like Prince on the guitar.

Just to throw in some names people perhaps haven't checked out, from various different styles:

Jimmy Bryant
Charlie Hunter
Phil DeGruy
Lenny Breau
Kevin Eubanks (see him live somewhere other than the 'Tonight Show'... his standing gig and various recordings don't really do him justice)
Bill Frisell
Henry Kaiser
Fred Frith
Guy Van Duser

A couple of the above are kind of tough to find recordings by, but well worth the search.

gimo33 · 08-03-2006, 01:36 PM

satriani, santana, hendrix

Godsmack · 08-03-2006, 01:41 PM

I love Zappa the most.. listened to soooooo many guitarist, but somehow i get moved by Zappa's sound most..not all his music is great but he has many utter brilliant tracks with incredible guitar solo's.

Btw, Stevie Vai played in Zappa's band ;-)

Best drummer? Terry Bozio in Baby Snakes..

Try Surfing with the Alien probably his most best and famous stuff.. think he has always been friends with and even tutored Kirk Hammet Steve Vai etc...Vai was great on eat em n smile/skyscraper etc. I have been adicted to Yngwie J Malmsteen for as long as I can remember..serious freak. But its just gotta be Ralph Macchio FTW..his work in crossraods...well legendary.

Oh forgot...Zappa is/was in a world of his own for sure, but how bout Dweezil Zappa?/...he had mad chops...that solo he did with his dad on Sharleena was something else, defined 80's rock guitar for mind.....man I so wish my name was Dweezil, chicks would dig on me.

Yeah, Joe Pass kicked ass, for sure.

Bummer of a Joe Pass story: Once, years ago, I had tickets to see him as part of a concert that also featured Leo Kottke and a classical guitarist (whose name escapes me at the moment).

We get to our seats, and right before the lights dim, they announce "We regret to inform you that Mr. Pass will not be performing tonight, as he has fallen ill."

I think he died a week or two after that, without ever taking the stage again, if memory serves me correctly.

Did you know Zappa owned one of Jimi's guitars he burned live on stage?
Zappa fixed it and played on it for many years.. His son Dweezil is looking to sell it now.. i think he is asking like 600k for it.. :-)

Jimi once said that Zappa was a better guitar player than him ;-)
But who carez.. Jimi was awesome.. i have all his albums..

fastfun · 08-03-2006, 03:56 PM

No one likes Mark Knopfler, from the former Dire Straits?
He is my favorit for sure

I like the underplayed but still masive guitar

OG LennyT · 08-03-2006, 04:21 PM

Geezer Butler and Tony Iommi were an awesome combo with Black Sabbath - almost scary at times

of course Hendrix, Clapton, Page, Van Halen, Stevie Ray, Frampton

VirtuozzoSimon · 08-03-2006, 05:59 PM

He's underrated. If he focused on strictly guitar oriented music rather than pop-rock he'd probably have gotten more recognition.

Adam_M · 08-03-2006, 06:24 PM

I have 3 all time favorites depending on the mood.

Eric Clapton
Jimi Hendrix
BB King

Yes, Joe Pass was awesome. He could make a guitar sound like a piano. I have a few DVD's of him. He learned a lot while he was in prison for 10 years for cocaine. My father met him.
