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

Wife caught Richard Thompson in the mid-80's. Changed a broken string during a tune and never stopped.

Jimmy Page

I'm not a fan of Bonamassa, not a big fan of SRV, either, though I acknowledge their talents

Neil Young w/Crazy Horse I have not seen mentioned.  Down by the River. Cowgirl in the Sand.  Great stuff.

 

 

 

 

 Roy Buchanan was my favorite several years back. His version of "Hey Joe" in my humble opinion was better than Hendrix's.I noticed Eric Clapton didn't make your list.
