The guy makes all kind of excuses for his picks...Fogerty..."There had to be a representative for CCR"....Joni Mitchell "Needed a woman, her songwriting influenced many"...I thought this was 50 best guitarists??

Lots of great picks...and lots of lousy ones.

If a woman was needed, Rory Block or Emily Remler might have been better choices as guitar players...

Haha yah tell me about it... Garcia... Sick of all these Fake "Dead heads" that praise the Bears.. but cannot list off ONE song of his lol.

Still wich they would give some love to Michael Romeo, John Goodsall and Of course Zappa... hell he had Vai BEGGING to play with him come on that shows something.

I agree 100%...do you want the 50 best or do you want the 50 best as long a certain groups are represented?

Hell yah!

****- Paul Gilbert, Muhammed Suicmez if your in the Technical Death metal stuff

and on that note.. nothing wrong with Bill Steer from Carcass- Ventured out with Firebird to show that guy is very versatile.. check them out. The most Accurate and impressive form of "Classic/Blues Rock" in todays era.

Assumption is Rock guitarists? There is a whole number of world class (non rock) guitar players and they would easily rank at the top of the list above.

That's the problem with Top XX lists. They're always wrong.
Plus I didn't see Mark Knopfler on there.

And nowhere does it say top rock guitarists so one would assume it's open to all genres.
Pat Metheny anyone?
