napoleon Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 i'd say for me it would be without a doubt stevie ray vaughan. (i'm afraid all of you are going to say nels) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mchchef1 Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 They may not all say Nels, but I bet they won't say SRV.( I think he is great but he gets beat uo around here) It is also an imposssible question to answer? You could narrow it down some might help. ie best blues G/ best living/ best wilco/ best left handed etc. but just for fun I'll throw in my current top fiveGrant Green Jerry G.Brian May Mark KnopflerJimi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HighFives Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Verlaine is amazing. I'd say the best of all time would be John Fahey acoustic ofcourse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HighFives Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 i second marr, i can't wait for the new modest mouse album.did he join MM or something? Isn't Johnny Marr the Smiths old guitarist? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WilcoFan Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 did he join MM or something? Isn't Johnny Marr the Smiths old guitarist? Yes he was and now is in Modest Mouse. He was helping them in the studio and planned to tour with them since MM's guitarist left the band. Then they just decided that it would be awesome if he was a full time member. I didn't get "Good news..." but I will definitely be getting this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't get "Good news..." but I will definitely be getting this one. i didn't much like good news. but i'm REALLY excited about this album. just the concept of having the guitarist from one of my favorite bands in another of my favorite bands is mindblowing.
