The Great thing about Rock is what it means to everyone individually... The discussion taking place here is completely unneccessary... As Far as I can tell... Muzzy simply listed some guitarists that he felt were better then Eddie Van Halen... And he is right because that is how he feels... It's not like their is some sort of world recognized Grading or scoring that takes place... What does the guitarist mean to you... Does he blow you away... People tell me that Chet Atkins is perhaps the best ever... It's not my cup of tea so he's not in MY rankings... Neil Young has said that there is no one in the same Room as Jimi Hendrix and there never will be... Personally, I think Jimi is a little over the top for me... BUT THAT IS JUST MY OPINION... Yet I love some of his songs... Little Wing is perhaps one of all time favorites...
Stevie is without doubt one of personal favorites... He personally saved me from life as a Foreigner Fan... The 80's in MY OPINION was a horrible decade for music... Synth was dominating the landscape and here comes Stevie Ray... A light in the Darkness... The First time I heard Stevie I put my Foreigner Records away for good at age 18 and I realized that Rock and Roll had another level... From there I Found Zeppelin, The Who, Jimi, Everyone... Stevie caused me to Join a Band... Start a career in radio... When I think back... Stevie Ray Vaughan may have been the reason that my life is so heavily invested in Rock and Roll to this day at age 39... That's what Stevie meant to me...
Who's the greatest ever... Who Knows... It's doesn't matter because everyone has an opinion...
So, ZPS2 you really should stop acting like a know it all and be respectful... It's great that you play Guitar just like the other million or so who can strum but it doesn't make you an expert on how Muzzy should feel... Be respectful...
