JOHN FRUSICANTE (pictured above)
I was wondering if your avatar was of John Frusciante. I hate RHCP now, used to love them when they were relatively new. Ever hear of Hillel Slovak? He was great!Quote:

Oh yeah, the 3 albums they did with Hillel and Mother's Milk were great. I liked Blood Sugar Sex Magik, but not as much as Mother's Milk. I have ultimate respect for Hillel, he's the one who taught Flea to play bass, Flea was a trumpet guy. Hillel was the one who talked Anthony into getting up on stage and rapping their first song. Without Hillel, there would be no RHCP.
Enjoy. :stoned:

Eric Bourdon
good guitar!
Joe Satriani, point blank. He's the inspiration/teacher behind greats like Steve Vai, Kirk Hammett, and many more.
There is another up-and-comer, a eccentric guitarist from Spain, named David Valdes. Most people haven't heard of him, but he's been around for a while, and is just now going solo.
Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Eddie Van Halen, they're all excellent players in their own rights. But, in terms of virtuosity and sheer brilliance on the fretboard, none of them compare to Joe Satch!
Peace.
Mr. C
Everyone of the guitarists that were on the crossroads DVD put on by Eric Clapton. Plus Soooo many more. Rory Gallagher, Roy Buchannan,Kenny Wayne Sheppard,Stevie Ray Vaughn, Les Paul, Chet Atkins, Al DeMeola,Larry Coryell man I could go on and on but I won't
YouTube - AMAZING blind guitarist
Hiroaki Tagawa
Billy Sheehan on bass, David Gilmour, SRV, Steve Howe.
My top 10 are:
Jimi Hendrix
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Jerry Garcia
Derek Trucks
George Benson (how come no one has said GB WTF!)
Jon Scofield
Trey Anastasio
Tony Iommi (of Black Sabbath and Ozzy)
Duane Allman
and last but definitely not least Mark Knopfler (his dire straits is good, but his session work is amazing.)
Robin Trower
jimi hendrix or jimmy paige
Mr. Robert Johnson will ALWAYS be on the top, so start your list at #2.
I'm sure they've already been said but.............
Jimi Hendrix (check the av :D)
Jimmy Page
Tom Morello (listenin to him jammin right now)
Yngwie Malmsteen
Steve Vai
Frank Zappa
Joe Satriani
YouTube - Steven Seagal - Girl it's allright
Not too many jazz players listed here, besides George Benson and John Scofield, who are both great, but Pat Martino probably the best living guitarist in this category.
Here's a vid of Pat Martino, John Scofield, and Joey DeFrancesco playing Sunny.
YouTube - Pat Martino & John Scofield - "Sunny"
haha...greg ginn
I can't believe that it took almost 4 full pages for someone to mention Tom Morello.
I was gonna say Jimmie Page and
Keith Richards
Does Robert Plant play anything besides those pants, omg!!!! those pants!
whos the best Drummer?
Ringo number one!
Jus Oborn (His work on Come My Fanatics rivals everyone. Tripped out, incredible soloing throughout much of the album, as well as Electric Wizard's other albums)
Eddie Hazel (Maggot Brain. This guy did the greatest solo ever in the history of guitar)
Neil Young
David Gilmour
Robbie Krieger (The Doors)
Wino (The Obsessed, The Hidden Hand)
Tony Iommi (Paranoid is loaded from beginning to end with top notch, memorable riffs and solos
Daniel Riddle (King Black Acid... This guy has a great, mellow style that puts you so at ease)
Bernard Sumner (Joy Division)
Best bass players would be
Tim Bagshaw (The greatest BY FAR. His killer heavy, ultra groovy riffs in Electric Wizard's early albums are the best ever.)
Al Cisneros (Om, Sleep)
Peter Hook (Joy Division)
best bass now i woul have to say
phil lesh drops bombs like nobodys buisness
rob wasserman plays electric stand up
phil lesh is not even close to an all time great bass player, that is ludicrous
Easy
#1- Alexi Laiho YouTube - Children Of Bodom - If You Want Peace...& Bastards Of Bodom -check out the solo at 2:16.. and another at 6:30.. both songs are sick!
#2- Zakk Wylde YouTube - Zakk wylde warm up
the best
wes montgomery is AMAZING
Guthrie Govan.
read my mind. greatest guitar player ever. HANDS DOWNQuote:

Eddie is Amazing, but I wouldnt say the best
well i am a phil phan and ive seen him do some amazing things with that bass. technicaly he maynot be the best, but i love the man. maybe it is just sentimental, but hay waht the hell we all got our own opinion. i also really dug allen woody. dave schools is also a kick ass.
i dig all of them, i just dont see what phil lesh has ever done with a bass that has been amazing. dave schools and allen woody, hell yes, lesh, i just dont know what you mean, but you seem pretty cool and we are all entitled to our opinions, so have a good one
Mark White Ex member of ABC***
ME!!!!
No really Steve Vai, Mike Keneally, and Frank Zappa. I base this on ability. Zappa wasn't the most fluid but her came up with some amazing stuff. He was smart enough to realize that he couldn't play the stuff he wrote so he hired people who could like Keneally, Vai, Adrian Belew, Ike Willis and the list goes on.
Download a song called Beautiful by Mike Keneally if you don't believe me. Your ears will love you forever for it. He plays and sings that shit at the same time. He's also the musical director for the Paul Green School of Rock and does one of the voices on Metalacolypse.
don't i know it bro, he shoudlnt have been mentioned at allQuote:
