Who is that 8-armed Indian goddess? Kali? Perhaps her death solo is epic enough to die for…?

> how about being proud of his scottish heritage...


 

Speaking of which, anyone see last night Robin Williams being politely corrected 

by Craig Ferguson on the difference between being from Scotland and not England?

So as not to sound like every other guitarist around at the time?
To give their music a cultural theme?
Without imaginative musicians we'd still be buying sheet music, possibly.
Should Bob have gone electric?
Little Richard sacked Hendrix! :/

you have to ask yourself why anyone would want to make their guitar sound like that - if he could have played the bagpipes and made it sound like Hendrix..now that would impress me

There are a million other things I should be doing like sending out cover letters or re-tooling my resume or scouring the job sites for new opportunities, but I can't concentrate on that right now, so here is my list of worthy guitarists (who crucially didn't make the cut on this inane list)

 

 

Great guitar playing -- as far as I'm concerned -- has less to do with musical chops and more to do with individual style.

 

Geordie K. Walker of Killing Joke

Andy Gill of Gang of Four

Keith Levene of Public Image Ltd.

Hugh Cornwell of the Stranglers

Ron Asheton of the Stooges

John McGeogh of Magazine/Banshees/PiL

Tom Verlaine/Richard Lloyd of Television

Billy Duffy of The Cult

Ivan Julian of Richard Hell & the Voidoids

Daniel Ash of Bauhaus/Love & Rockets  

Wayne Kramer/Fred "Sonic" Smith of the MC5

Stuart Adamson of The Skids/Big Country

Jon Spencer/Judah Bauer of the Blues Explosion

Dr. Know of Bad Brains

East Bay Ray of Dead Kennedys

Greg Ginn of Black Flag

Steve Jones of the Sex Pistols

Johnny Thunders of the New York Dolls/Heartbreakers

Robin Guthrie of Cocteau Twins

Sterling Morrison of the Velvet Underground

Fast Eddie Clark of Motorhead

 

and 

 

Dave Gedge of The Wedding Present (can you play that fast for an entire show? I thought not).

 

Alex in NYC

I’ll agree with that.  (I would.)  Second one was shit.  Not bothered after that.
 

Still no room for them in a top 50 of anything decent list.

That photo is one of the less ludicrous from a shoot that was published in Q magazine in the UK. They all looked like total knobs, especially Brandon, who will always be a little altar boy to me, spiv moustache or no spiv moustache. I’ll see if I can find a link to the pictures, as they’re hysterical.
 

Actually, I quite like some Killers tracks, mostly from the first album (the second Springsteen-esque one was an abomination), but they don’t half look daft.

I cannot listen to them, ever since the end of 'Control' happened..
They seem to spend half their life suing people, too..

why are the killers mentioned here?
 


they're on the radio & play guitars & looking at that list it's a wonder McFly aren't in there :)

 


Actually - try & play the intro to Mr Brightside - sounds simple but it's a - erm - killer.


Actually #2, I think the guitar in that song is fantastic as is the song.
