MuzikTyme 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2008 I'm not a musician so I don't know if he's technically the best, but for overall effect and pure rock 'n roll strut, the great Jimmy Page. Have you seen him lately? He's the coolest 65 year old on the planet!Very impressive that he recently got a country music award...ooops, that was Robert.

Farin 2 Report post Posted October 19, 2008 definitely Mike McCready welcome to SF mewoyou also, I read Robert Johnson was said to have made a deal with the devil to be able to play like he did Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viaene 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2008 yep, Johnson sold his soul to the devil for a guitar and superhuman talent. He died at 27 you know, hear a bell ringing? oh, did I mention JJ Cale? his guitar play and compositions are fantastic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

berjo1429030949 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2009 Did anybody mention Frank Marino? For years and years, he was either #1 or #2 among my favourite all-time guitarists. Here is my top 5 which hasn't changed for a loooooong time - 1) SRV 2) Frank Marino 3) Gary Richrath 4) Johnny Winter 5) Jake E. Lee Oh, and #6 for that same duration has been - 6) John, Paul & George (yes, they are one cohesive unit) For the next dozen or so, I'm still not sure of what order - - Joe Satriani (probably 7th) - Frank Zappa - Joe Walsh - Kim Mitchell - EVH - Nuno Bettencourt - Pat Travers - Alvin Lee - Hendrix - Jose Feliciano etc. Of course I'm forgettin' some.
