clapton versus hendrix

[johnboy1974]

everbody makes their own argument for the best, and why not after all its a matter of personal taste. Just in case anybody is interested mine is Rory Gallagher, for me he is number one but then its my choice.
Why cant we get together and make our personal favourites a fabulous cd

One Andy Powell comes to mind...... hugely overlooked always in discussion forums, but admired within the industry and usually not surprisingly.... up there with the top dogs when guitarists reveal their A list players......

personally dont see anything in clapton but there you go

As a rocker I agree with everything that has been said but think classical as well. Julian Breem and John Williams are both extraordinary guitarists in the classical genre but who can deny the young lad that did this [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjA5faZF1A8]YouTube - guitar[/ame]

On the heavier side of things I'd have to say Jeff Loomis from Nevermore. As for Hendrix and Clapton, I've never really got into Clapton so I'd have to say Hendrix.

Top 5:

Steve Vai
Jeff Loomis
Kirk Hammett (I like him!)
Brian May
Jerry Cantrell

For me it has to be ..

Joint 1st
1. Jimmi Hendrix / Jimmy Page
3. Eric Clapton
4. Joni Mitchell
5. Chuck Berry
6. Saul Hudson (Slash)
6. Keef Richards
7. Jeff Beck
8. John Lee Hooker
9. Jose Feliciano
10. Dave Gilmour

[Dirk Bentley]

Ive always loved Clapton. Dave Gilmour is amazing as well. As for Jimi, its too bad he died all young. Nobody like him and probably never will be. I cant imagine what he would have become.

not in my particular order but some great guitar work IMO and also the best

Another one to add to the mix but not really well known. Patrick Rondat. I have 4 of his albums and he is almost fairly good with the good old six string

This track is one of the tame ones.
