[kj] O/T 50 guitar legends

[B. Oliver Sheppard]

Holy SHIT what a suck ass list!

No one from Bad Brains (excuse me???), no Geordie, no Greg Ginn - wow!

I think these "Top 50," or "Top whatever" lists are just troll bait. 
Where is Carl Perkins, Duane Eddy, Scotty Moore - you know, all the 
real, actual rock n' roll guitarists?

Putting the Arctic Monkeys and Blink 182 guitarists above them just 
reeks of troll-dom.
