He didn't invent any of the techniques he was known for, but he mashed it all together and pushed it to a level that no one had ever come close to doing before. He deserves to be number 1, period.
in otherwords: he was ridiculously innovative in technique and phrasing.
and songwriting many would argue.
theres a reason jimi is satch's hero
