"Jimmy page Angus young but best of all Richie Blackmore-- especially solo in Highway Star!" Richie Blackmore was a great Guitarist, His best time was with Rainbow, in my opinion, But as I said, Gilmore is still the best. | |||

" As much as I think David Gilmour is a very talented guitarist, definitely one of the best, there's far better out there. Page, Clapton, Peter Green, John Fogerty, BB King, Robert Johnson. Just my opinion of course. | |||

Yes, as you said, your opinion, I agree its a very close sector to get into, And yes they are all great, but only on e deserves the crown, and in my opinion its david. | |||

"My favourites are Nils Longren, Joe Walsh, Mark Knofler and Jeff Beck " Hey, I realise I have opened a can of worms here, and that every one has there own favourites, so I think I should shut up now, and agree to disagree with you all, there are some brilliant guitarists out there,but in the end, PINK FLOYD rule, and DAVID GILMORE is the best. and as its my post, I have the last word. LOL. Good night and enjoy your music. | |||

"Has to be without doubt: Doyle Bramhall ll this guy is simply amazing, he is wearing the open colour black top in this clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH2nTo_c8qw and don't forget the great "snowy white" & "Andy Fairweather Low" who play small Scottish venues often, such as backstage at the green (Kinross) when they are not touring with the greats such as Roger waters, Clapton, Elton John etc Saw David Gilmour a few times and yes he is good, but he is also getting old, last time I saw him was at the O2 when he was invited to appear with Roger waters (The Wall)" Yea I know what you mean about getting old, lol. and yea there are so many great guitarists out there its hard to pick the best. | |||

Although his guitar work may sound awesome it's not exactly complicated or hard to play. I've got a few friends that started out playing guitar by learning Floyd riffs before progressing onto other things. | |||

" Floyd is sublime but is more the about the sound and song construction like Hendrix who still has one of the best performances playing little wing live. Then there's the ones who technically are amazing like Joe Satraini and Andres Segovia. | |||

Unlike some bands where you are not permitted to stand, take photographs or indeed take your mobile phone out your pocket (cough - the eagles) | |||

"OK I'm a drummer and have played with some amazing axe men over the years. Same with drummers, too many look at rock or metal and forget other genres like Prog or jazz. As for guitarists Used to always say the bet I've see it heard was Gary Moore, man played rock, jazz, fusion, blues. However last time I saw him he had become boring and was churning out the same shit. Virtuoso guitarists like Steve Vai, Joe Satriana are highly rated Slash, Hammett/Hetfield, Hendrix,Clapton were all over rated. Jeff Beck, Eddie Van Halen, Brian May are under rated As much as I like Floyd and David Gilmour sometimes he just doesn't quite do it, other times I hear him play Prince's Purple Rain or see Comfortably Numb live and wet myself Guys like Zack Wylde, Randy Rhodes, Tony Iommi, Billy Gibbons and Angus Young are worthwhile names What. about other genres like Ry Cooder, Django Rheinhard etc So many greats and I haven't covered Page, Blackmore etc So many but the very best is a matter of personal choice. " How can you say Slash and Hetfeild are overrated If anything I'd say Slash has the recognition he deserves but Hetfeild gets overlooked as he's only rythme. Hammett I agree, he's good at what he does, he's fast and has a good technique but he's not up there with others you mentioned. | |||

"I do like pink floyed but in my opinion there are better guitarist out there like Steve vai and Joe satrani " Gilmour is my fave guitarist, he's the guy that I like the sound of best, he's still why I play guitar today. I think the most talented is Joe Satriani "on peregrine wings" is just an outstanding tune. | |||
