[Wandi]

His chops were good...thats it I guess. I mean, I'd kill to be as good as he was, but there are alot that are better.

 

[bekahh]

McLaughlin also played with Miles Davis and is partially responsible for the immortal Bitches Brew. the first three or so Mahavishnu Orchestra albums were damn good too. the last thirty-five years are pretty garbage though.

 

[Byakuya]

Please list your favorite guitarists so i can verbaly tear apart your taste in music.

 

[BigJetFixemUpper]

I liked his guitar work in 'one' though, lovely solos.

 

[2blah2]

they would look wicked written out, the measures would have to be so huge to fit them in...

 

[kimmayyxo]

rex is pantera's bass player. They only have/had one guitarist.

 

[Yates]

Steve Vai

 

[k.liley]

Slash is not the best guitarist. I would have to say Hendrix, Clapton, Page, SRV.

 

[Big bill 22]

I don't know if you could say he's metal, some of his stuff is heavier, but Joe Satriani.

 

[MarinesGirl23]

yea paul mccartney was left handed

 

[Mach007]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

[Daniel]

He has some decent stuff with Symphony X, theres some melody there. But overall as with most shredding, its not my cup of tea.

Anyway, recap on my top 10.

Jimi Hendrix
Jimmy Page
Robert Fripp
Dave Gilmour
Steve Howe
Tom Morello
Jonny Greenwood & Ed O'Brien.
D. Boon
Frank Zappa
George Harrison

[☆♥krazy kookie☆♥]

Is Pride & Joy original? Or Texas FlooRAB? They are both amazing songs! And as I said his version of Little Wing (8 minute version) tops Hendrix's version. What other songs SRV would you recommend? I have a couple of others like Scuttle Buttlin', Rude Mood, Sky is Crying tho...

 

[Weirdoo]
