re: TOP GUITARIST OF ALL TIME....

Clapton is great, there is no denying that. I can't not have the guy in my top 10. I don't care for listening to his albums, but I love listening/watching his live stuff.




I feel like Buddy Guy is often underrated in history.

From an Interview with Buddy:

quote:

---

Eric Clapton calls you the greatest guitar player alive. Who do you think is the greatest?
I think Eric and B.B. King are the greatest. B.B. is the best ever. He taught us all everything we knew. It's nice of Eric to say that, but I still have to go out and prove that I can play a few licks. I don't take that for granted. Hell, if Eric says that I am the greatest guitar player ever, then maybe I am. That's just like saying you're the best boxer in the world or saying you're the best baseball player in the world.

He also mentioned how he wishes he could play with Jimmy Page. I think that would be pretty fricking cool.


Took the girl with me to see him about a month ago, we were by far the youngest people there , but it was amazing. What he is able to do at his age is so ridiculous, especially vocal wise. As good of an entertainer as I've ever seen. Even she, who had heard maybe a song or two, was blown away by him. I can only imagine what he was like in his younger days.
