django was the first great jazz guitarists and i agree with you, cerebrotonico (sorry if i spelt it wrong) jazz guitarists are always left in the shadows when talking about the greatest guitarists - pat metheny, john scofield and wes m. are some of the most technically and musically gifted guitarists i have ever heard yet they never get in the greatest guitarist polls because - not meaning to be rude - some people just cant understand jazz and some people dont even try to understand jazz so these fine musicians are ignored by the general public. however, i am extremely thankful to the gods that PAT METHENY IS COMING TO ADELAIDE (where i live)!!!! ive already booked tickets at great expense and i cant wait till March next year when ill see him as part of the adelaide festival!
