Favourite Guitarists


This discussion was inspired by the recent article about our 3 favourite female singers.

Because it was impossible for me to pick just three female vocalists ( I love women singers), I will not put a limit as to how many you wish to vote for. I limited myself to a dozen. However, if you list more that 50 I will seriously question your decision making skills.

In no particular order, except for Rory at number one.

1. Rory Gallagher

2. Peter Green

3. Roy Buchanan

4. Joe Bonamassa

5. David Gimour

6. Slash

7. Johnny Winter

8. Duane Allman

9. Stevie Ray Vaughn

10. Mark Knopfler

11. Glen Campbell

12. Guthrie Govan

Memorable moments:

  Leo Kottke, in the middle of 12 string magic breaks the hi g string and without missing a beat starts transposing around it...Utah late 70's

  Santana, last note of the Caravanserai performance rings for at least 2 min after the band had departed the stage...Newport News early '70's

  Dicky Betts making Elizabeth Reid cry with his little finger...William & Mary early '70's  (maybe inspired Roy Buchanan or vice versa?)

  Steve Miller, my ears still ringing 2 days after standing in front of his speaker stack...Newport News early '70's.
