King of? Cream were probably the closest thing to metal when they came out.

But then of course guys like Zeppelin and Blue Cheer took it a lot further.

I'd say kind of edgy is an appropriate description. They were kind of edgy for popular music of the time, but there was more usual music out there at the time to be sure.

True, but it being more obscure meant it didn't have the amount of influence and impact that Clapton did.

That's all I'm saying.

well I don't believe Hendrix is the best, as far as technique I wouldn't rank them even in the top 10, but he is the most influential by far...

Try to understand I tried to be objective with this list.

It's not about who's the best but who is the greatest.

Steve Howe would be number 1 if it was personal preference.

My favorite Jimi track is probably 3rd Stone From the Sun. Little Wing, If 6 Was 9 and Voodoo Child (Slight Return) are also up there.
