Well, some that certainly should be on the list aren’t. For instance:

- Jethro Tull’s Martin Barre on “Aqualung.”
- Dave Mason on “All Along the Watchtower.”
- Fleetwood Mac’s Lindsay Buckingham on “Go Your Own Way.”

Just to name a few.

I know! I have an old video of my, then 4 y/o, daughter in her ballet tutu dancing to that. Knopfler is brilliant. I saw him this year & he is absolutely at the top of his game. He is better than ever, I guess he figured something out along the way. Thanks you for the link!

No Les Paul with “How High the Moon.” No Les Paul at all.

Hmph.

Geez...Duane Allman sucked as a guitarist. Hate to say that about a dead man - but he was God-awful....

Buckingham is ALWAYS shunned in these polls. A damn shame. He is without a doubt one of THE best guitarists out there. Him singing Big Love solo with just his guitar is simply masterful.

Fingertalkin’ by Triumph featuring Rick Emmett. An excellent acoustic effort by an accomplished electric shredder.
