When I think of the very best guitarists I think of Hendrix, Page and Blackmore because they knew how to strut their stuff and write great music besides playing the guitar. I find people like Satriani, Vai and Malmsteen despite their virtuosity with the guitar about as exciting as listening to a Nickelback record.
Out of interest, who would
If thats the case, why isn't Robbie Robertson in the Top 5? or Justin Hawkins in the Top 20?
