I love Carlos Santana as a guitarist especially in his heyday and watching him on Woodstock with Mike Shrieve on drums is the stuff of legend.

As a huge Boston fan I`ve always loved Tom Scholz, especially when Brad Delp was on vocals in that group

I saw Journey on their last European tour and Neil Schon made it look so easy, easily one of my favourite guitarists and have always considered him along with Steve Lukather the cream of AOR guitarists
