Not saying these are THE top ten, but they are MY top 10

1. EVH
2. David Gilmoure
3. Angus Young
4. Hendrix
5. Randy Rhodes
6 Glen Tipton
7. Jimmy Page
8. Joe Perry
9. Richie Blackmore
10 Zakk Wylde

Why I didn't include:

1.Steve vai - This is what a computer would sound like if it were programmed to play guitar.
2Slash - Yes his stuff was cool; but same sound same pentatonic solos ? Saw him at the hammersmith and was totally underwhelmed - the other guy from VR seriously played the better solos!

Vai has more feeling in one note than those players listed have in their entire careers.

And a good day to ya.

Don't get me wrong i'm not slating him; but there is such a thing as over engineering.

It all just sounds a bit to clinical to me.

Didn't you put hendrix in your list above vai anyway!

I don't know why I said that-must be because I am slightly drunk and I think everything is funny.

Whats with the Bobby Charlton one?

The next Rammstein guitarist might be someone like Claudia Schiffer :P
