A guitar list without Stevie Ray Vaughan and Gary Moore has no reason to exist.
He's #20, just not included in this video
I came here to comment that. Stevie doesn't know that many guitarists it seems. I'm glad to see other people know them. Stevie's Little Wing is the ultimate blues song for me.
lol what the fuck they missed SRV???? dude
i totally agree with you
@@metal4lifewp bro, no one knows all the guitarist. How'd u even expect someone to know 😭
A guitar list without Yngwie Malmsteen and John Petrucci has no reason to exist. That's it
agree
To the history of electric guitar? sure it has it's reasons. A guitarrist is a musician, not just how much notes you can make per second or how many different techs one use in music. That's bullshit...like comparing dick sizes
Saying that Petrucci and Malmsteen didn't write guitar history is pure blasphemy. They didn't just "play millions note per second": they innovated guitar playing and changed the style of soloing forever
@@cesarefrancescoriggi If by "changed guitar soloing forever", you mean "after them solos disappeared because everybody was bored af with this" I agree. As much as I respect the technical skill, 80s/90s guitar shredders straight up banished guitar out of existence for the mainstream, and it's still trying to recover from it.
Yeah and since electric bass guitars are guitars its about time they start putting the bassist on that same list it would kick out all the unknown names from the best guitarist lists
Paul McCartney is very much indeed a guitarist. He did terrific soloing on Taxman, Strawberry Fields Forever, Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts’ Club Band, Helter Skelter, And Your Bird Can Sing, a m o
Exactly lmao
He’s still a bassist at the end of the day, and a better bassist than guitarist.
He was told by John that he had to play bass.
That guitar shape was stolen from a guitar builder who was recently interviewed at NAMM.
😂
Phil Collen, Steve Clark, and Vivian Campbell all definitely deserve to be on this list.
Vai at 127, Jack White at 32, Buckethead unlisted. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time 🤣🤣
Was Tony Iommi on the the list? No country players either?
Paul Gilbert, Zakk Wylde, Yngwie Malmsteen, Michael Angelo Batio, Kiko Loureiro and others not in the list is frustrating too.
@@arthurskc No Rickie blackmore. No country guitarists. A complete joke.
The only based thing the list did was putting Jerry Cantrell on the list. No Yngwie or Blackmore is a sin.
And Eric johnson at 202…… 31 behind paul mccartney😂😂😂
A guitar list without Dave Mustaine, Guthrie Govan, Marty Friedman and John Petrucci ain't a list for me.
I was about to ask the same thing. Where is Dave Mustaine.
@@salmankabirshouvo exactly. Also Guthrie Govan
Saw the list and went straight up to the comments like tf is this bs
@@BrunoPochette ikrrr 💀
Toni Iommi bruv
Thanks for getting a hold of me I'm honored. Your s great guitarist.
New subscriber. Thanks for making me laugh my ass off during a very sad time in my life .
people mock this guy for him being the canadian jim carrey at times, but the truth is he's genuine, funny and most importantly - a fucking ridiculously talented and creative musician who writes incredible solos
No Andy Timmons, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Guthrie Govan and Shawn Lane on this list is absolutely criminal!
Truee.... thought SRV was on there.
Govan? Low tier at best.
Guthrie would have needed to have something different between his legs to get on the list. How ridiculous.
No SRV is f up... so is Gambale, Greg Howe, Becker, Vinnie Moore, MALMSTEEN FFS, Holdsworth, Govan, Petrucci, the list goes on and on and on... epic fail
not if youre not a moron who trust rolling stones lists
The legend himself, who wrote the first ever alternate arpeggio (Child in Time), and also many many other extraordinary riffs and solos, influenced so many others and they left him behind. Mr Ritchie Blackmore.
No Blackmore but they put Joan Jett!!!!
Ok, no Blackmore is def criminal. I don't care about X or Y shredder 0.00001% of humans ever listened to not being on the list, but Blackmore is straight up a mainstream, extremely influential guitarist.
Definitely criminal.
lol yeah right .
I remember seeing Rainbow in 1998 Blackmore for the first time after seeing Malmsteen Jake E Zakk and many others, and just realizing right the no one was before Blackmore, also Blackmore plays melodies on slide . Yngwie does not play slide at all
oh I know why! Blackmore declined going to the Hall of Fame to play a gig at a pub with Blackmores knight, he said in the press " I had a gig that day, the hall of fame doesn't really matter"
love that you mentioned Mick Mars!!! also no CC Deville , that’s a crime to not include him
Thank you for a most entertaining and accurate video.
Micheal shencker, tony iomni, dave navarro, zakk wylde, and Gary Moore are all deserving to be on this list.
Havent seen the list, but if Schenker is not top 20 its not worth looki´n at.
This list was made just to piss people off. They probably laughed their asses off while making it!!!
the list is a joke tbh
That is being way too nice. I wouldn't give this magazine to gitmo prisoners for torture. I literally might be having a stroke.@@mikedown1250
Agreed, it's ridiculous. Other notable players they left out are Al DiMeola, Paco De Lucia, Joe Pass, George Benson, Glenn Campbell, Yngwie Malmsteen, Ritchie Blackmoore, and and Uli Roth.
Even staying within the Seattle grunge genre, there is NO WAY Kurt Cobain is a better guitarist than Jerry Cantrell.
I feel like alot of what they were going for was historical importance and mainstream appeal. Alot of kids picked up the guitar because of Kurt, they decided to get "better" because of Jerry 🤷♂️
Jerry Cantrell is better than Kurt, Kim Thayil is even better than Jerry
or McCready, or Gossard, or Thayil...
It's honestly pretty offensive that Kurt Cobain is even on a list of guitarists at all. I have a side gig teaching guitar, and most students surpass kurt cobain in skill within about 3-5 months.
.
This would be like calling someone who can only make grilled cheese and cereal a chef.
Definitely not. Jerry is underrated
Very surprised not to see Buckethead on here, he's a very versatile player, too
Larry LaLond, both Michael and Rudolph Shencker, Mustain, Leslie West.
See you're that good, you dont need a rank
Exactly Tez!! I'm not even mad about it. Like at all. Don't even want to be on this stupid list!!!! 😤

Yeah, obviously they messed this list up!! Try AGAIN RS
He's there ...#20.
@@cryptofool7247 must be a different list?
Nobody reads Rolling Stone anyway
I love Stevie, he was great. But if you listen to more than the popular songs, you see he's a one trick pony and that trick repeats itself alot.
Man, you made me laugh so loud that my kid woke up 😂
I have to mention that I was in a bad mood for months!
Thanks a lot for that!
You are great!
Lol, same here!!! I keep watching it over and over!!
He is , he cracks me up. He's my favorite spazz next to my wife but when she spazzez its embarrassing not funny
I haven't watched a Stevie T video in like 3 years but im glad bro is still crazy as every😂
For anyone interested, if Randy Rhoads survived he most likely would have gone back to University after that tour and became (if I recall) a classical composer. He spoke to Ozzy on the tour bus about it the very night he later got into that plane, he’d just lost interest in the whole rock thing and wanted to move on. It’s all in Ozzy’s book
Also I might add, the very last thing Randy said to Ozzy was "You'll kill yourself, you know, one of these days."
Diary of a Madman is one of my top favorite albums of all time. The story, the voice of Ozzy, and amazing beautiful guitar work that Rhodes did on that album will live on forever once you listen to the whole album. I was lucky to see Ozzy and Rhodes at the Met Center in Minneapolis. I will never forget the music, the singing, and the stage show. It was a masterpiece.
@@thepeopleonthecouch2928It’s crazy that Ozzy is still alive to be honest

Funnily enough, the very last guitar player shown in the honorable mentions is supposed to be at the top of the list, Guthrie Govan is quite the definition of a living guitar god, not only his technique is flawless, but his speed, melodies, rhythms, all are insane.
Actually the SECOND to last player shown in the honorable mentions should be at the top of the list, SHAWN LANE.
He IS the guitar god, except he’s no longer living sadly.
But Guthrie would be #2 for sure
@@Johnnysmithy24 Agree to disagree, I guess in music we can't all have the same preferences. Personally though, I find Shawn to just be super fast with 1 specific chromatic ascent/descent that he seems to be doing in all of his solos.
It's like those countless guitar players on UA-cam that are after world records for the fastest bumble bee ever, I don't consider that music, it's cool, but not something I'd listen to more than once, if at all. That's my opinion.
If you said to me, who would u listen to more, Shawn or Guthrie, I'd say Dimebag, and and.. there's many others. Hard to say only one is good.
his Technique is not flawless he can't Alt pick!
@@Johnnysmithy24 Actually Shawn and Guthrie would say that Holdsworth is the man.
Couldnt agree more mate. No one plays EVERYTHING as good as Govan!
Elliot Smith never ends up on lists like this, but his guitar playing really was incredible. He was a singer/songwriter though so I think he gets overlooked.
Jon Gomm does things on the guitar (while playing it as a percussion instrument, changing the tuning and singing) that shouldn’t be humanly possible.
Ichika Nito switches genres 5 times in a 45 second clip of him playing guitar, and it somehow sounds incredible.
I’m not sure if they belong on a list like this but, if you are a guitar nerd like myself you need to check them out.
I still can't play "Tomorrow, Tomorrow"
@@lildrummerboy8561
Happiness is the Elliott Smith song I spent so much time to learning to play and sing. It’s not the most difficult like tomorrow,tomorrow, but a lot of his songs are deceptively tricky to play.
The intro riff from Layla was written and played by Duane Allman.
I'm pretty sure Allman did the solo, too.
The fact that Neal Schon of Journey, Oli Herbert, Alexi Laiho, Steve Clark and Phil Collen of Def Leppard, and Terry Kath of Chicago (Whom was highly praised by Jimi Hendrix) aren't on this list further cements that it's a full on sh** show.
The fact that what?
@@pinkyellowblue007 is not on here
Alexi Laiho 😳😳😳💪💪💪
Oli Herbert was a guitar god.
Also Mike Oldfield
I knew maybe half of these. But I will say, my knowledge of guitarists has greatly increased from the years that I have been watching you! Maybe Rolling Stone just throws names and numbers in a hat and goes from there. One day hopefully we will get to see your name on this list! That would be awesome! It's always awesome getting to see you play. Have a wonderful weekend 🙂
We should definitely be the judges for Rolling Stone from now on... I think they tried too hard to be inclusive of different genres and eras. It just feels convoluted. 😞
i knew they was gonna put hendrix as number 1 at the start of the vid,hes deffo top 10 but not number 1,deffo ideological on their end.
they didnt even inc lead belly either@@SteveTerreberry
Don’t go by this list. I promise you and every long time player will tell you…it’s painfully bad.
...... 6:52 ......like, I took out Nicole Kidman's boyfriend, Keith Urban......+ quoted 1970s Jimmy Page saying Roy Harper is his favourite guitarist......!?!.......that is absolute drivel, even suggests bribery......
The Soundgarden dudes could have slid in over a couple of these weird picks.
You missed Steve Morse, Vito Bratta, Joe Bonamassa, Michael Romeo (Symphony X), Jeff Loomis (Nevermore), Andy Laroque (King Diamond)
I actually had the Eric Johnson song randomly play in my head a few days ago and had no idea who did that song. Thanks for doing this!
Missing Robert Fripp is a crime as he was a true innovator and such an skilled guitarist.
No crime. Robert Fripp is at #59. Nobody in the comment section is bothering to check the list out.
@@DanalynTuthill-yl4hd
Because Steve T has a negative score IQ.
Ok but why would you care?
@@marcinha1973 Huh?
No.

Thanks for messaging me. Your a great guitarist! I saw Michael Schenker in Minneapolis in 2018, he's great@
Dude you are so funny. One of a kind. Thank you
Dave Mustaine surely deserves a mention
Indeed, it's not the top 250 vocalists of all time is it?
Mustaine was 251.
And Toni Iommi
If such a funny character as Kerry King is there..
Terry Kath, founding member, lead guitarist and singer of Chicago was an absolute guitar genius that Jimi Hendrix considered to be better than himself, should be at least in the top ten
I love Terry kath so much
No.
18:02 the reference is so good bro
Mark Tremonti one of my all time favourite
WHERE IS DAVE MUSTAINE? Not only did he pretty much write the first three Metallica albums, his solos for Megadeath are unworldly. They are phenomenal! Rolling Stones dropped the ball on this list…
Edit: stop coming for me yall I was exaggerating when I said he wrote the first three albums. CALM DOWN! 😃🤚
It’s in my personal opinion that he is an amazing guitarist and has inspired me to be better myself. It’s fine if yall don’t like him as much as I do. Plus, (also in my opinion) he’s better than Atleast 45% of the guitarist on this list.
All true except he cowrote 4 songs on the first album and a few riffs on the second. One riff on the third is debatable. Saying he wrote the first 3 albums is just flat out wrong
The Four Horsemen
Jump in the fire
Phantom lord
Metal Militia
that’s the songs he co-wrote on Kill em all
Ride the lightning and The Call of Ktulu he co-wrote on the Ride the lighting record
Total he co-wrote 6 songs which Four Horsemen and Ride the lighting are great songs other ones are mediocre.
Whowhoa, bro he just wrote a few songs on kill em all and one song on ride the lightning, ik he's an incredible guitarrist but bro he just no deserve to be on that list
@@MmmiguelitoZZZif paul simon is on this list then surely dave mustaine deserve to be as well
@@MmmiguelitoZZZ "a few songs on kill em all" which turns out to be an album filled with true "classical music" masterpieces
I personally think Alex Lifeson of RUSH is one of the most underrated guitar players of all time. Mainly because he was surrounded by 2 of the best musicians of the other essential instruments in a rock band.
he's not underrated. rolling stone is just dumb not including him. he's among the pioneer himself in the guitar world, he's among the best
Actually! He wrote limelight. That song alone should land him top 10.
@@introbrilliantm7583 He is included, spot 58. Still too low, definitely top 10 at the very least
@@AlexSosaBolivia no need to be so rude
I fell like that twice over for the guys in Primus who aren't Les Claypool.
Steve Steven’s definitely doesn’t get credit where credit is deserved. A very good songwriters guitarist who writes memorable parts that serve songs, but he can always shred his ass off
There was no space for Paul Guilbert, Jason Becker, John Petruccui, Yngwie Malmsteen, Michael Angelo Batio and the rest of them, because they had to include all female guitarists they knew.
I can’t believe you don’t know who Scotty Moore was. He was Elvis’ guitarist. In addition to writing some of the most iconic riffs in early rock he was a huge influence on guitarists such as Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page.
Scotty is one of the reasons why Elvis is the king
And yet Scotty wasn't the man to record "Guitar man", the coolest song Elvis ever did. It had to be Jerry Reed.
Well, that's probably why we don't know who he is. Elvis was shit music. The rolling stones were generic, boring, and extremely simple. Eric Clapton couldn't even play with his pinky and had HORRIBLE technique, which didn't matter because he wrote simple but catchy riffs. Jimmy Page stole most of his riffs, and even ignoring that, his solos were just cliche pentatonic riffs.
.
Jeff Beck is probably the only halfway decent musician you listed there.
@@anthonyfaiell3263 Clearly they should have worked on their tapping harder (in the 50s), maybe they would have sold as many albums as you did, with your pinkie mastery and all that.
Maybe you'll realize one day that 1/ things need to be looked at in context and 2/technique needs to serve music, not the opposite.
Ole Stevie is too young I think. Scotty is one of the few guys on the list the influenced both country and rock players. Not to mention the whole Rockabilly thing was a big part of what Scotty brought to guitar. Elvis and Scotty were a force.
Stevie T never disappoints when it comes to straight facts. Period.
Get over your PMS bud 😅
@@Alt.F4. is it just me or you liked your own comment

He never disappoints when it comes to ignorance as well. He didn't know half the guitarists in the list.
I got a lil' bit loud with my "127!?" for Steve Vai
Paul Gilbert is my all-time favorite guitarist also.
Other possible honorables for me would be Jeff Loomis, Zakk Wylde, Alex Skolnick, Mattias Eklundh, John 5.
Tony Iommy deserve a much better recognition on guitarists lists.
He contributed on creating metal music, especially the heavy genres, more than anybody in the history.
I mean, not to be disrespectful to others great guitarists, but there's an ENTIRE genre born because of him, how many guitarist can say that?
Btw, love you Steve!❤
Tony would be in my TOP 10 and I`m not Sabbath fan.
You can't even spell his name right, wannabe
His solos are always amazing and I love his riffs. And I am a dumb drummer
I agree. I think, generally, creativity is overlooked in favour of specific skills. Sure, a bunch of the guitarists on the list are madly skilled on guitar but are less so creative on the guitar. Others give only a facade of creativity.
I very much agree. Without Tony, heavy metal would be much much different
João Gilberto basically invented bossa nova, so definitely deserves a place on the list. He played on recordings with Sinatra as well, such as "Girl from Ipanema"
What? Did you hear about Vinicius De Moraes and Antonio Carlos Jobim, pal?
@@p.informatico1320they were part of the movement. It like saying that Charlie Parker invented Bebop, it’s true but there were others part of that movement too who worked together such as Miles Davis, Monk etc.
@@OmgEinWahnsinniger They were the beginning of the movement, before it was even called Bossa Nova... Joao Gilberto inspired on their recordings. Just listen "Se todos fossem iguais a voce" ua-cam.com/video/iEX3r0T5JsE/v-deo.html
Gilberto is probably the most influential of bossa nova guitarists but invented no he was one of the many musicians of the rio night club scene
@@p.informatico1320 as a Brazilian and a musician i can confirm joão Gilberto is the inventor of bossa novas acoustic guitar.

That was very informative. There are lot of great guitar gods out there for sure. I recognized about half. LOL. You did forget to mention the greatest guitar god in my eyes. I call him son. Stevie T maybe you will be on the list one day. Love you.
Steve is indeed very good! And he totally doesn't see it. Sometimes I have a feeling that he limits himself and shows only half of it what he actually can do.
That is such a Mom comment. I love it!! I don't think I've done enough original stuff to even be considered. Maybe some day!! 😁
Well Mama T, I think youre biased. Stevie T might be good but compared to Jared Dines and L'il Wayne ? They didnt even make the list so Steve needs to practice more

They are legends ❤....
You're correct on ghe "Edge" comment. Now he IS a Linda Ronstadt tribute band rythem guitarist.
Joao Gilberto was the father of bossa nova, a brasilian style of music simmilar to jazz from the 50s, totally deserves the spot on the list.
Yeees dude!
He is undeniably one of the greatest Brazilian musicians and undoubtedly one of the most influential. However, Brazil certainly has better guitarists than him. This list only highlights the lack of knowledge that Americans often have about non-American music
LEGEND!
100%. I’d even replace a few of the guitarists on the list with Caetano Veloso.
@@avarose4154 Caetano is undeniably one of the greatest composers, but not necessarily a standout guitarist. There are others who excel in this regard, such as Baden Powell, Toquinho, Yamandu Costa, Nuno Mindelis, etc
I'm glad you honorable mentioned Marty Friedman and Paul Gilbert. The fact that both were omitted renders the entire list invalid. You asked for others. My nod goes to Kanami Tōno. Incredible talents.

It wasn't Clapton who came up with the iconic riff in "Layla;" it was written and played by Duane Allman (although he doesn't get credit as a songwriter).
The piano part was written by the drummer !

Interesting. Now that you say that, I can totally hear the Allman Brothers in that riff.
@@markoliver630 Yes, the piano part was written (and played) by the drummer, which is why his name is in the songwriting credits.
It's still hard to believe that Duane Allman wasn't credited.
Edge of darkness enough to put him atleast in top 20
I'm a Spanish speaker, and I am quite surprised by Steve's pronunciation of 'feliz navidad'; it sounds with a nice, correct accent.
I'm so glad you mentioned Chuck Schuldiner 🙌🏻
Man Al Di Meola should have been in the top 20 at least
Releasing an album like Elegant Gypsy at 23 years old is just insane
I'm a classical guitar player and while it might not mean anything to other people but I can't believe they didn't put any classical or flamenco guitarists like paco de Lucia, Andres Segovia or John Williams; musicians who made an impact on the classical and more mainstream guitar world.
Yeah, Paco really deserves to be on that list. Steve already mentioned Al Di Meola, who is a living legend, and that reminds me of Friday Night in San Francisco (still my favorite classical guitar concert after all those years ...) with McLaughlin, another legendary guitarist, of course. Fun fact: Saturday Night in San Francisco was released last year, a mere 42 years after the concert ... 🙃
Because they are true musicians and they don't belong with the so called rock noise.
They put that weird dude that Steve mocked/complimented. He's basically a modern classical guitarist.

A guitar list without Steve Terreberry has no reason to exist.
The shoutouts to George Lynch, Warren Dimartini, Mick Mars, and Yngwie provided so much closure
so cool to see the lindsey buckingham appreciation. big love was one of the first songs i tried to learn on guitar at 11 years old. as you can imagine it was a nightmare 😂
Really waited for Herman Li to show up on the list. Thanks for mentioning him. I've decided to choose peace and will now put my pitch fork back in the basement
I was glad to see Alexi pop up in the honorable mentions, albeit briefly
Gilmore's warm first solo on comfortably numb is definitely the most epic of all time. Takes me some childhood dream. No solo feels as good as that one feels every. single. time.

Great breakdown of the subject, Steve! Love how you replicated so many of the riffs and solos. Excellent work.
Charlie Christian was arguably the first-ever electric guitarist to have featured solos when he played with Benny Goodman. Tragically, his career only lasted a few years before dying of tuberculosis at 25.
Charlie Christian was also voted the world's best guitarists twice in a row in the 40s.
Robby Krieger on 248... I can't believe that
You should definitely make your own list
Aside from his hit “Feliz Navidad” Jose Feliciano is a great guitarist. Search some of his solos, he has impressive technique. All played on acoustic and without being able to see (he’s blind).
He's incredible at Flamenco.
Yes, certainly José Feliciano is a great master of the guitar, but if they put him in he should have also put in Paco de Lucía.
love how he just completly ignores james hetfeild and goes on to talk about kirk hammet
Fun fact: Dan Povenmire, the creator of Phineas and Ferb, worked with Slash for Across the 2nd Dimension, and wrote Kick it Up a Notch. Great song.
Mike Shinoda, Brad Nelson, and Mick Gordon are awsome bro
Allan Holdsworth not being on the list is criminal
I'm glad someone else commented this. That guy approached the guitar in such an alien way, yet it's oddly compelling. Even weirder that he isn't there considering they added Fredrick Thornedal, who cites Holdsworth as a massive inspiration
Totally agreed!
Steve Vai calls Holdsworth the greatest guitarist of all time and he's also on the list@@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic
Truly the GOAT. Flawless technique and advanced harmonic concepts combined.
Also no Zappa lol
I'm glad you put Marty and Buckethead on your list. They both completely and forever changed the way I play/listen/view the guitar. And......that was in the 90's lol good job!
Yes!🤘

2:37 Inspiration for Dream Theater's Best Of Times guitar intro?
I feel like Bo Diddley should be somewhere here. He not only invented his own style of playing but also built his own guitar

This may not be a popular opinion but Freddie King deserved to be on there alongside BB King. His screaming, almost wailing notes are just so nice. The first to really inspire my playing.

That's funny and sad at the same time because its true.
All 3 kings Freddie Albert and B.B.
João Gilberto is the greatest Bossa Nova player of all time!!! Super innovative as a acoustic guitarist, and obviasly he was a amazing composer.
As a Brazilian 🇧🇷 I think it's amazing to see you on this list.
He had trouble playing the Snow riff here, but played it well on a beginners guitar.
Richie Blackmore, Ace Frehley, Dave Mustaine, Vernon Reid, Alex Lifeson, John Sykes, Tony Iommi…..just to name a few

How do you miss CHUCK SCHULDINER? Incredible player and built a genre, or two.
Just brilliant, AND you can track this through his career-- he picked up a lot from guys like James Murphy, Paul Masvidal, and others... it's easy enough to track this by some of the stylistic choices from Spiritual Healing on, especially Human. Death took a 90degree turn there & pretty much created technical death metal (or prog death, depending on who you are). I think the combination of having Cynic's P. Masvidal & the insanely talented Sean Reinert on board really opened some avenues of possibility for Chuck, and he leaned into that for the rest of his Death career. He was a humble guy (although it's not like he didnt KNOW he was very skilled). I think that's why he wasnt afraid to learn from a few of his bandmates--it was his skill that allowed him to incorporate new knowledge into his playing. And the fact that he did this while still keeping Death's sound utterly recognizable throughout is a trubute to the force of his personality and his own style.
Those fuckers dont know about Chuck
Don't overlook Sean's great fretless on Human also. I know you didn't but he was a fundamental force in Cynic (the great band hardly anyone knows about 😢)
@@VegamorphiumSteve digiorgio played bass on human…
@ScrilboBaggins I am such an idiot. Yes of course!
...
Lincoln Brewster of course! Listen to Stever Perry's Solo Album "For the love of strange medicine" and of course Carl Verheyen and Tim Pierce to name my favorites!
So glad you brought up Chuck Schuldiner!!! Aja, what about Mr. Yngwie Malmsteen?
Rolling stone set up a dart board with all these artists and threw darts at it to come up with this list. They got some good ones in there!!
So random. 😂
Well, they suck at darts then!!!! 🎯

“Don’t piss in my coffee and tell me it’s salad” 😭 look man, I’ve heard of “don’t butter my ass and tell me I’m a biscuit” before but THIS…. This is beautiful, top tier, absolutely fabulous. You forgot pants again by the way. 👍
That's actually a popular saying in Canada!! Or at least it will be...
And I didn't forget pants. I just play better without them!! 😁
Dimebag Douglas. 💀

Josh Homme from Queens Of The Stone Age. Dude rips solos and has one of the most unique sounds out there.
