Thanks,,gonna be a bad one looks like mandatory evacuations coming by Tuesday more than likely for our area but we plan to stay put..Looks like we will most likely get the blunt of Florence..We have survived many Hurricane's over the years but this may by far be the worst we have to deal with..With God's help we will make it, if not there's a better place on the other side..

Doesn't get the respect or recognition he deserves. Like me some 10 Years After.

No love for Allen Collins or Ed King? They helped make Lynyrd Skynyrd great. I like pretty much every guitarist yall named, some more than others. I'm glad Alvin Lee was mentioned his performance of "I'm coming home" at Woodstock is one of my favorite videos. There's a young guy named Kirk Fletcher thats going to be great if he doesnt burn out. Check out his version of "Hey Joe" if you get a chance dont have time to link it.

There is no "best guitarist ever" in my opinion. Jimmy Page is the best Led Zeppelin guitarist, Eddie Van Halen is the best "Van Halen" guitarist, and so on. As far as I'm concerned, I think EVH is by far the most creative guitarist that ever lived. If you listen to some of the melody tracks from the early albums, especially "Take your whiskey home", and "Unchained", those melodies fascinate me. In the later years work like "Poundcake" that uses a cordless drill grounded through a stack of EVH amplifiers is frikkin' awesome!
Yeah, I liked 'em, and they were both awesome guitarists. But I liked Rossington and Gaines's style of playing better.
Greg Martin of the Kentucky HeadHunters is also a good one. I saw a Skynyrd show during the reunion tour where Ed King had broken his finger and couldn't play, and he picked Greg to fill in for him. He was rockin' it.
I saw the HeadHunters live a few years ago. They may be getting old, but those boys can sure still lay some music down.

Yeh he did. He just didn't get the publicity because he wasn't very moral at concerts.

Sorry. Derrick Trucks is the very best
player you never heard of
Check him out on YouTube.
He's grown now but played with
The Allman Brothers as early as
13 y/o.
My list is to long to post. There are many.
My favorite is the great Jimmy Page.
No doubt, the best that's ever been
and nobody can or ever will be as good
as Page!
Another one who is a great guitar player that isn't realized by most folks is Sturgill Simpson.

Gilmour……..BEST OF ALL TIME! At 2:06 and 4:29 so begins the best version of the best rock solo EVER!!!! If I won the lottery I think I’d try to figure out a way to go see him before I bought the bass boat
