This all seems rather subjective. It seems like everyone has someone they feel is the best. Even looking at the Rolling Stone list I was amazed Kirk Cobain was on the list. Anyway, just gonna put my 3 favorites.

1. Eddie VanHalen
2. Carlos Santana
3. Mark Farner

[Dieter]

Yip I forgot Carlos Santana...

(tigerxxx @ Mar. 22 2008,09:19) Even looking at the Rolling Stone list I was amazed Kirk Cobain was on the list.

With ya there..... the poll wasn't for  100 of the "most tortured souls" but for how a guy plays his licks;  and Cobain was average at best


some from there which are a farce IMO;


    12 Kurt Cobain of Nirvana

16 Johnny Ramone of the Ramones - since when does mastering 3 chords make someone 'great'? I mean, I liked the band but Johnny was average also


17 Jack White of the White Stripes -   Huh??  forget 3 chords, this band thrives on 2!

87 Joan Jett   -    pretty funny, Rolling Stone


some I agreed with for sure;



  24 The Edge of U2

59 & 60 Jonny Greenwood, Ed O'Brien of Radiohead

75 Adam Jones of Tool

86 Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath

99 Greg Ginn of Black Flag
       

Seminal LA  surf-punk circa 1978-1982, that guy could crank!! saw them twice, first in 1979....Ginn had a cool see-through guitar body and ravaged the thing

   some other awesome guys on that list;

  45 Frank Zappa  - dead now, right?

 48 Joe Perry of Aerosmith  -  pretty fast; Boston guy  

 69 Steve Howe of Yes  -never cared for Yes, a bit too artsy for my tastes but all my stoner friends had their shit, he can play also.   Brit, of course


     another influential guitar player not mentioned anywhere yet is Bob Mould of Husker Du and Sugar

Bass player.... they don't count!!

Yusuf Islam........

Naaaa..... Cat Stevens ain't a great guitar player, just a controversial figure who made some mellow stoner songs in the 70's

nothing wrong with "Peace Train" though!

[Dieter]

ok ok ...only for you....John



Cat Stevens on the peace train lol....

John .....

[Dieter]

Monkey Man with Keith Richard.......
