Re: Best Guitar Players of All Time
Since the question is best guitar players of all time, and not something like top 3 guitar players of all time, Jerry Garcia certainly deserves a place somewhere.

[/ QUOTE ] I was talking to my dad about this list today. He said "where was jerry garcia?"(he used to follow them on tour for like a year.) I said "13th, i knew you would ask that." To which he replied "wow, thats way too high, he isn't very good". I chuckled. |

2) kazuhito yamashita - really not a lot to say. the most impressive technician I've ever seen on the instrument. [/ QUOTE ] This guy is sick, check it: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Igv3ytUCGq8 I think he can shred like any metal player if he wnted to, however I don't think most metal players could play what he plays. |

Re: Best Guitar Players of All Time
I'm not surprisedhe hasn't been mentioned, but Django Reinhardt has got to be at least discussed here. There isn't much video out there but if you look hard enough in those to be unspoken of places you can find alot of good stuff. Here's a couple links, listen to them all the way through. I don't even like jazz that much but this guy is a badass.

IS there anyone that is currently playing that could be in the top 5? I remember someone posting a video of a guy playing that was supposed to be the best ever. Some long haired rock guy. [/ QUOTE ] Buckethead? |
