This is it, 1986!

Wheels within wheels...but no we're not talking about Rory Gallagher...

His solo album would probably be the obvious choice here but that's not with KISS that's with other musicians, although I do think of it as a KISS album. Anyway we know that one would win so I've not included it in the poll. So which is it?

All these guys are around the same age, two of them are 65, two are 66 and Gary would have been 68.

Have at it!

I know what my choice is and it might be controversial.

This is a bigger poll, just pick who you like best or who you think is the best one from this group of 20.

May, Beck, Blackmore or Iommi?

Who's your pick from the poll choices?

Ok here we go...

A list of 15 guitarists from the 60's and 70's, just pick the one that you prefer most. Edit: To include Uli Jon Roth.

Holdsworth, Di Meola, McLaughlin, Johnson or Morse?

Hackett, Howe, Barre, Fripp, Green or Gilmour?

Who do you prefer as a guitarist? SATCH OR THATCH?

I don't get it... :smash: :smash: :smash:

RUSH guitarist Alex Lifeson says that he will spend the next 14 days "self-quarantining" to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus. Earlier today, Lifeson took to RUSH's official Twitter to write: "Just returned from Spring Break with my gKids. We are all self quarantining for 14 days. All travellers should. Looking forward to getting caught up on Netflix!! Send your top viewing suggestions. – Alex" The province of Ontario, where Alex lives, currently has the largest number of COVID-19 cases in Canada. On Saturday, Ontario reported 24 new cases, the highest daily increase since the outbreak began, bringing the total number of cases to 103. There have been more than 169,000 confirmed cases and more than 6,000 deaths so far, putting public health systems and emergency services under immense pressure. Officials have made it clear that the elderly — especially those with heart, lung and immunological conditions — are particularly vulnerable to the coronavirus, with at least 25 deaths linked to one nursing home in Washington. In Italy, which has one of the oldest populations in the world, one hundred percent of the people who have died have been over 60, and the vast majority over 80

Sons Of Apollo have announced the release of their second album, MMXX. The album (pronounced '20/20') is the follow-up to debut Psychotic Symphony, and will be released on January 17. The album will be released as a standard CD package, as a limited edition 2 CD set – including instrumental mixes and a cappella excerpts – and as a double vinyl plus CD package, and on all digital formats. The band, in which drummer Mike Portnoy and keyboardist Derek Sherinian are joined by Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, Billy Sheehan and Jeff Scott Soto, have also announced a European tour for March, in addition to the already-announced run of North American dates in January. New dates below. "Stylistically, we have followed the same path as the debut, says drummer Portnoy. "But we feel that it has come out stronger, simply because we know one another better. "Psychotic Symphony was the first time the five of us had worked together, so there was bound to be an air of experimentation happening. Now, we can draw on having the experience not only of recording that album, but also of touring together a lot. And now there is clearly a lot more obvious chemistry going on.” He continues: "It took about three weeks to get all the music written. That was a very smooth process. The last time, it certainly must have felt a little weird for Bumblefoot to be writing with Derek and me, because we were strangers to him. Now, we know one another better and that helped things push along." "Because we all have our home studios, it meant everyone could record there as and when they had opportunity," adds Sherinian. "We all had the luxury of being able to take our time to get all the parts done, which was a huge help in the way the album's come out. I suppose in all, it took about eight months to record everything." Here's the track listing for "MMXX": 01. Goodbye Divinity (7:16) 02. Wither To Black (4:48) 03. Asphyxiation (5:09) 04. Desolate July (6:11) 05. King Of Delusion (8:49) 06. Fall To Ascend (5:07) 07. Resurrection Day (5:51) 08.
