Unless I missed it, no one has mentioned the criminally underrated Chris Cain. If you are a fan of great electric blues guitar (not to mention first rate vocals and hip compositions) check him out on Tidal, Spotify, etc… Albert King loved him.
Favourite Guitarists
This discussion was inspired by the recent article about our 3 favourite female singers.
Because it was impossible for me to pick just three female vocalists ( I love women singers), I will not put a limit as to how many you wish to vote for. I limited myself to a dozen. However, if you list more that 50 I will seriously question your decision making skills.
In no particular order, except for Rory at number one.
1. Rory Gallagher
2. Peter Green
3. Roy Buchanan
4. Joe Bonamassa
5. David Gimour
6. Slash
7. Johnny Winter
8. Duane Allman
9. Stevie Ray Vaughn
10. Mark Knopfler
11. Glen Campbell
12. Guthrie Govan

As an Aussie, I must mention Red Symons who was guitarist for the band Skyhooks which found fame in the 70s for many reasons. Nobody outside of Australia has probably heard of them - six songs from their first record were banned from radio airplay. Not unlike Brian May, he has an astonishing intellect. |
