I hate to vote against the godfather of metal guitar, but Steve Howe is just too virtuosic and versatile.

Move over Rover, and let Jimi take over.

Tough one, but one of the very few players from the '70s that I'd vote for over Jimmy Page is Brian May.

Maybe this is the remix that got Broon fired in the first place?

My question is, when was it remixed? Many years ago or more recently?

 Is the argument for KE9P2 being the second greatest rock song of all time valid? The obvious answer is yes.

 

Yes, KE9 is the second greatest rock song of all time! And also, no it isn't.

Anything else I can help you with?

I found Tape Op's website but that article isn't on there. Are the more recent articles behind a paywall?

I should have checked this thread before posting what I did! I should've known someone would beat me to it! 😁

That'll learn ya!

Mr. Blackmore.

Kind of an unfair fight. Matheny is better than most.

I know that. It's a bad luck draw for Mick. Or maybe not -- he'll probably win anyway.

Ugh, I can't choose between these two.

I went with Rory. As much as I love Billy, Rory plays with just a little more fire.

Ugh, I can't choose between these two.

I didn't include him in the GUITAR BATTLE, was I wrong? Am I evil?

I give it to Moore because he was more versatile than Big Leslie ....

Jones got two votes, and those two voters didn't dare post about it. Smart move.

First thing George heard after he stepped through the Pearly Gates?

NORM!!!

RIP George

One vote for Schenker. You can call it now.

Very nice, thank you for posting this!

Just came across this stat:

Most 20 point/10 assist games in WNBA history

10 — Courtney Vandersloot (430 GP)

9 — Diana Taurasi (565 GP)

9 — Caitlin Clark (41 GP)

Moar votes needed!

This is a short one from that album that blows you away too:

 

 

Yeah, that one is pretty insane. As fast as he's playing there you can still hear every note.

Well if you're a prog fan then the U.K. album he was in from 1978, for his solo stuff I would say Metal Fatigue, I.O.U. and Road Games. If all that is a bit too much and maybe you're a pop fan then there's the Level 42 album he was on. Here's a couple of tracks.

 

 

 

Duck, both those videos are showing up as unavailable, at least for me.

What would you say is a good entry example of Holdsworth, for the uninitiated?

I consider this a perfect guitar solo. It's one of his shorter solos, but there's a lot packed into it. The phrasing is melodic and well-paced, the bursts of speed add intensity, he follows the chord changes perfectly, and his technique is flawless.

This is probably his most famous extended solo. Again, the pacing is wonderful, he really takes his time building up the intensity. This song also shows off his chord work.

I saw The Brothers a few weeks ago at MSG.   Great band, and if you closed your eyes,  you'd swear it was the original Allman Brothers Band.

 

Duane gets my vote

 

 

Derek Trucks might be better than Duane. His slide playing is ridiculous.

Steve Morse gets my vote, he's the complete package.
