Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green

WOW, Beck AND Page + Yardbirds 1969, Mam, those were the days! Indeed! Did you happen to see the Who as well in England? I never had the chance to see the Who, especially their Quadrophinia tour, heard it on King Biscuit Flower hour, very nice live.

It was 1967. I never saw the Who. The Yardbirds were in the movie Blow Up, the Who turned it down. The Beck/Page duo
recorded only four songs ( one being a radio commercial for
great shakes drink).

Hey, what about Robert Johnson? Or is that going back too far? He's the blues man.

Already mentioned. Acoustic guitar master; knows what and why for each and every note played.

Rel2, thanks for the background info on Peter Green. You're absolutely right, there's something magical about British guitarists. BTW, do you know who does the slick guitar riffs for Alan Parsens?
