Ben Harper........future great imo and some songs are played on a lap guitar w/ a textured slide to get different sounds.....'God Fearing Man' has a sick example of this in the middle of the song.

Wilko Johnson
What about Les Paul? Without Les we'd probably have never heard of the rest of these guys.
...and while not really my cup of tea, Chet Atkins could pick a mean guitar!

Yeah him. Was at least gonna add him to the list. I like Trower too. Saw him back in '79 in a small theatre in Connecticut on mescaline
Did anyone mention Pete Townsend? Saw the Who a few times and thought he was kind of OK...lol. Lots of great guitarists out there but I'd have to say:
Hendrix
Clapton
Vaughn
Paige
As the top 4 for me in no particular order. 5 is a tough one to pick out of who's left.
Ted Nugent sucks ass. He is a turncoat sellout who should never be mentioned on a pot smoking site.
He had that long hair, made all his money while he was obviously smoking weed and now that he has kids, is the mighty gay hunter he speaks out against pot like he never did it or never would. FUCK TED NUGENT!!!!
As far as skills go who can really say but I wouldn't sleep on Rick Derringer if a guitar contest broke out.
And I would also like to put Johnny Cash on the list. Mostly because nobody was cooler handling a guitar than Johnny Cash.
But all in all you guys got things covered.
But please remember TED NUGENT IS THE ENEMY of all of us here.

I think you guys mean Duane Allman. Greg played mostly keyboard.

D'Oh! Been YEARS since I've listened to any music like this. For 20+ years now been nothing but classical and jazz.

Ted Nugent is a sell out piece of shit. You see him on real world or cribs or whatever? Lives in NH and just hunts shit with a bow and arrow on an ATV. He has 2 good songs IMO, Stranglehold and Cat Scratch Fever. That is IT.
--------------------
I'm really surprised nobody else is mentioning Robert Johnson...without Robert Johnson there would be no Eric Clapton, no Cream, no Jimmy Paige, no Zeppelin....jesus.
dunno, dont listen to music that much anymore, just occasionally.
listened alot when i was younger though.
the only guitar melody that i can recall without hesitation (nothing else comes to mind now)
is that line from smoke on the water.
who played that? (i have horrible difficulty with names, was it paige?)
