      I totally agree with you... because (I may get hate here) I don't think Hendrix was the "best" guitarist ever....
      I do believe he was one of the most influential guitarists ever. He was doing things with a guitar that no one at the time was doing, and slot of the techniques he helped pioneer are still deeply rooted in rock today.
      Another example is Clapton. While I agree, he was, and continues to be influential to the industry, I dont thing he is in the top 10 best rock guitarists in the world... let the hate flow through you...

      scott maclean I like Dream Theater, but I’ve never liked James LaBrie vocals. But, I agree Rush and Dream Theater are some of the most talented bands on the planet, and I don’t know how Geddy’s sings, plays crazy baselines, plays keyboards, and bass pedals.

    I know the first 3 are worshipped and no one can deny the impact they had on everyone but simply no, they're not better than Dimebag Darrell and Eddie Van Halen, and Mustaine should've been at least at number 8
    Eddie changed how the guitar played
    Dimebag changed metal
    Mustaine is a riff master
    Being great is not by how fast you shred, it's about it sounds

    • @whereswesker
      @whereswesker 4 роки тому +3

      @Dafyd Maddz agree but at some point, I know a lot of people who would choose a guitarist as being the greatest just because of how technical or how fast they play but that's not what it's about. It's about the soul , the passion, the emotions man those who can make you feel it through their playing are the best, that's what I think. And I can hear that in Dimes playing and Dave and I can hear the story and feel it
      I think people who are Truly passionate about music would agree. There's so many who can shred so damn fast but it doesn't sound good or pleasing cause they lack the emotions
