Is Dave Grohl the heir to Keef's riff-master title?

Yes he inherits it.

But, Keef isn't gone yet and we have more to hear I think so the title is secure.

I agree, I just think Dave in next in line-

Sorry about the keef spelling- don't know what I was thinking!

Spelling corrected!

I wouldn't call Kieth Richards a "Riffmaster" by a long shot. I'd say Iommi, Page, or Blackmore deserve that title more than Richards.

Well, I can appreciate those you mentioned, but by most standards Keef has been considered the original Riff-Meister for almost all of his career. He certainly pre-dates the ones mentioned.

Tony is a bigger riff master.

Here is all the riffs he wrote.

Oh wait, just look at every song he has played guitar on. :D

They realsed like what, 3 records? Someone told me they rearranged some riffs and drumming for a song and new lyrics from old songs and put it on new records.

A BFMV fan told me that! [lol]

I'm not a Stones fan at all so I don't consider Keef to be any sort of riff royalty, but for those who do, I get it!

 

Dave has some nice riffs too but you can't beat Tony. [thumbup]

 

 

+1.........iommi.

 

 

Thought 'brown sugar' was a jagger riff?. (tidied up by richards).
