Preaching to the choir. Wilco is probably my favorite band and nEls blows me away every time i see them/him.

lol whoever said phish is artistically limited is absolutely insane. While I'm not one to follow them from show to show, they are one of the bands who define artistic freedom in their progressive jams. Great band. Snobby fans sometimes.

But if that isn't your cup of tea (or bowl of cannibis - whatever you guys are into) - is it okay to not like them?
Because I don't like them. I didn't like the beta version of Phish (The Grateful Dead), either.
G-ddamned hippies.

Certainly...no one is forcing anyone here, that I'm aware of

The Grateful Dead is beta? Oh man....

Yes it's fine not to like anyone you don't. Your opinion is subjective. Talent is not. Phish is talented.

To be fair to the old, dead hippies, Phish is probably "The Grateful Dead, Version 2.0".

I think he meant beta in the actual use of the word. Sort of a synonym for proto in this context. Not that OT bullshite.

Since this is really a subjective topic there really is no right or wrong here I guess.
This is really fricking tough to do, but my top ten list:
Hendrix
SRV
Duane Allman
Buddy Guy
BB King
Albert King
David Gilmour
Eric Clapton
Jimmy Page
Freddie King
And I love Mayer, but no way would he belong in a top 10 all time list, not in mine at least. I believe you have to be around a while to join such lists. If you want to go top 10 current guitarist, then I'd absolutely put him in that.
Trucks
Bonamassa
Mayer
Frusciante
Jack White
Gary Clark Jr
Johnny Lang
Are some of the best younger guitar players. There are several others.

Phish makes very cheesy, uninspired music. Technically talented, but artistically limited.

Don't belong anywhere near a list like this. If Morello woke up with 1/4 of Kim Thayil's talent - tomorrow - he'd die from absolute shock.
What. The. Frick.? How can anybody dog Morello's talent? Maybe try listening to some other Morello projects that aren't RATM. "Be Yourself" is one of the prettiest guitar riffs I've ever heard as simple as it is. The "Promenade" solo from SSSC is ridiculous. He's got a few on that album actually. Have you seen the guitar solo he did with Springsteen at the RnR HOF? Nightwatchman solo project? I'd put him up against almost anyone today if they had to mimic the other person's playing.

Uh - he's a noisemaker in front of an extremely bada$$ rhythm section... that's how.
I'm not saying he can't play - he just isn't NEARLY a candidate for this list. Not nearly...

Agree. I love Rage, but TM gets a lot more praise than is deserved.

They arent even in the same class, physically, as guitar players. Creative/artistic is a different story, but as far as who can flat out play the guitar better, it's SRV and it's not even close.
