Hope this is the right forum,

Who do you think is the greatest guitarist of all time?
My top 5 (not including any GNR guitarists) are:

1. Jimi Hendrix
2. Jimmy Page
3. David Gilmore
4. Pete Townshend
5. Eric Clapton (listen to the Bluesbreakers album)

What do you all think?

Steven's drumming made the band; he made a big musical difference.  His sense of swing was the push and pull that gave those songs their feel, afterwards, nothing worked. ~ Izzy Stradlin
