That's because I could never really get into them or see the fuss musically, I'll admit though that they were pretty groundbreaking as a band (even though it had been done before)
They're on the shortlist for the 1982 list, but then again as are so many others.

Plus Emmets' work in 'Guitar Player Magazine' kept me busy in the 80's, trying to learn the nuggets he'd throw to us peasants.

I'm not a guitarist or know that much about what makes a great guitarist, but I still really enjoy how Emmett plays, he was of course from an era where technical excellence was expected.
Out of interest who else do you consider great guitarists from this era?
