I never got to see them, was 13 when John Bonham died.Saw Led Zeppelin at MSG around 1974. Awesome show and Dazed and Confused was incredible.
i did mention allman-meant duane. IMHO one of the best 5 ever. it is amazing how many great guitarists there are. i have heard a few in small local places that were as good as the best and most famous. bet we all have.No mention of Robert Johnson, Buddy Guy, Duane Allman, Ritchie Blackman…
Just another day at section 8.......More women acting like men. Western women at their finest. TRASH!
I saw Edgar & Johnny Winter at a bar outside Daytona Beach, in '87 or '88.i have always thought MG was his best # by far. got about 3 versions

Peart was an absolute monster on the noise buckets (drums) and I've always liked his playing.
Buddy Rich was another, and Keith Moon....that boy could kick some skins hard.
But, I always liked Bonham the best because he played things that should not even be possible.
Say the Zep lads were playing a tune in 3-4 time, Bonham would be playing in 11-14 time, then change to 7-9 time, back to 11-14, then to 5-7.....and ALWAYS be spot on in time with the other guys when they stayed at 3-4 for the whole tune.
That kinda shit is not humanly possible.
I don't know of a single other musician of any instrument that has ever even attempted that.
You can look it up, dig into it as deeply as you want, he was the only one.
Here's another guitarist for ya.....playing Bach of all things.
Leo Kottke, seen him a few times, very impressive in person.
oooold stuff. superior stuff. i often regret going "modern" vs amp,preamp,altecsDamn, and I thought I was dedicated…I just went down rabbit hole after rabbit hole last night watching videos on my iPad until after 4 AM!![]()
Not that these are better than any of the previously mentioned guitarists. But to add a couple:
Buddy Guy, Yngwie Malmsteen, Doug Aldrich(Dio, Whitesnake), Wolf Hoffman (Accept, solo work), George Lynch, Trond Holter (Jorn), Rik Emmett (Triumph), Ritchie Blackmore, Reb Beach, Rick Medlocke, Adrian Smith (Iron Maiden, Bruce Dickinson solo), Craig Goldy (Dio), Gary Hoey, too many to mention.
And I do not think I saw Stevie Ray Vaughn mentioned, may have been though.
Here is a video from Gary Hoey if you may have never heard of him. He is definitely worth checking out.
To only have $60, dude sure spends a lot of time in Europe.....
So we have determined that guitarists are a dime a dozen. Can we get back to bicyclists blocking the road?
