Timothy Mahoney from the metal/rap group 311 is an absolutely incredible guitar player. I have seen them many times and each time I am floored by how well the man plays the guitar. Listening to their CD's just doesn't do him justice, but once he gets to perform live....watch out. He holds nothing back and his solo's are worth the ticket price alone.
The best band? Maybe not BUT...........
Let's hear what bands or musicians you think were not necessarily the best but should have gotten much more recognition for their talent. For example: a really good drummer who was in a really crappy band and never got the attention they deserved. Or a band that had great music but the timing or managing was all wrong.
