Sgt. Pepper Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 2 minutes ago, fortyearspickn said: Rolling Stone came out with a list in 2010. I had to go back to find it. Only 100 Top guitarists then. As I recall there were only a half dozen females Joan Jett. Joni Mitchell... About as useful as if Amazon published lists like this. "Top Ten Chaffing Dishes of All Time" in 2010. And then - came out with "Top 25 Chaffing Dishes of All Time". Anyone who disagrees with the choice of "Kitchen Aid" in the top spot also gets a punch in the nose. I have a Kitchen Aid mixer for making pizza dough. No nose punch for me. The Sunbeam ones do look cool though. Question do dishes chafe? I get chaffed sometimes from ridding (peddling) my bike, and have to rub some cream on it.

We never need these lists. #1 is always, and will always be no matter what: JIMI HENDRIX Edited October 17, 2023 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinch Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Hm, no Mustaine on the list? That won't sit well with him. Also, odd to include Kerry King but not Jeff Hanneman. If anything, the latter should have been on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never and I mean never seen one where Jimi with an "I" wasn't #1. Its like that other thread, yes we will be discussing The Beatles 50, 75 and 100 years from now.

cody78 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) Weird list. I don't think I've ever seen Joni on any list of greatest guitarists. Great songwriter, but great guitarist? Edited October 19, 2023 by cody78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinch Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Sister Rosetta was awfully high up on the list. In all fairness, I haven't heard her play (I do know of her), but apparently she's better than most guitarists ever. Well, what do I know. Maybe she is/was.

No one "has" to like any music. My wife and I were talking the other day and she to me "I've heard some of the terrible you listen to". My response was "Yeah, but what I was listening to was good terrible music, and I know the difference." Edited October 20, 2023 by Sgt.

Ceptorman Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 LZ lll for the acoustic fans is also a masterpiece. They even had a banjo on that album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get into Led Zep because everyone liked them, in fact when I was young in the 90's nobody I knew liked them at school or had even heard of them. I used to put 'Since I've Been Loving You' on the cassette player in our form room and everyone said they were ****. These were the people who listened to boy and girl groups of the 90's...I'm still pleased I wasn't one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would put Jeff Beck in front of Hendrix. I was watching that Kennedy Center honors Led Zeppelin segment yesterday, and watching what Page was doing is astonishing. I saw Jeff Beck in concert 4 years ago, and his "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" rendition had the crowd speechless. He had blood dripping down his clothes by the end of the night. He still gives it his all. I have another opinion that won't be popular....I think Clapton is overrated! He was the 3rd best guitarist from the Yardbirds!

Those guys are all great, but I think Richard Thompson and Lindsey Buckingham are two the best still alive, and for people to think a guy that can't and hasn't play a note for over 50 years is still the best ever and no one had move past what he did is silly.

Buckingham is exceptional, and underrated. I think there are many that don't get enough recognition.....Alex Lifeson, Brian May, Neal Schon. The 70s rock scene produced a lot of great guitarist. Buckingham did it all, wrote, sang, engineered, and I like his playing style. He never overplayed, just his portion of what the band needed. I was never a huge fan of Fleetwood Mac back then, but I am now. I think Christine McVie was the glue that held that band together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
