OK so Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode is the best guitar song ever. Why is that?
I fully agree with you. With every song they gave a brief history lesson on how the song evolved but no reasoning to why it's so high. And if they did give a reason it was always something like "It set the standard for future artists" or "It's the most recognizable riff within the genre" type stuff. I too would like to know why the songs were choosen and why so high.
