Yeah, watching that earlier clip of Edie’s solo, I’m pretty sure he had what my daughter would call “ a touch of the ‘tism”
I think that’s what allowed him to hyper focus on just that action at times and accomplish feats that most (all other?) humans just can’t understand, let alone do.
Watching those back-to-back, I’m pretty sure Prince was Jimi’s illegitimate love child! LoL
I was planning on going to that concert, stayed home for a NYE party instead....one of my biggest regrets in life...
My favorite Warren Haynes, Mick Clarke, Buddy Whittington, Henrik Freischlader; the list goes on.
Also meant to include Glenn Tipton (Judas Priest) on my previous "guitar" post. May not be as technically pioneering as some of the others mentioned here. But helped to create part of the beginnings of "Metal". Was a great too!
However, I do have to say Rush is absolutely one of my two favorite bands. Here is a great clip of what many say is
The Best Intro Ever".

All this talk about music is making me break out some great old stuff. Very much into good music! Couple pics of some audio gear that I have loved love to hear.
I know there is another member here that has a stereo consisting of McIntosh, Wilson. NICE stuff (lots of envy here)!

Damn, 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!
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.

One of the old stories back when was about a guitarist that played really well, very fast when he wanted and always clean. I don't remember who. As the story goes, someone ask how he learned to play. He replied he was self taught, learned to play by listening to and copying Lester Flat and Earl Scruggs but he thought it was one person.
True? Don't know.
Thank you,

I heard something about John Bonham years ago, I think on Rockline. Comparing him with Neil Peart, who was the best. The knock on Bonham was that he only played a single bass. But then the response to that was if he played a double bass, Jimmy Page couldn't keep up with him.
Saw Led Zeppelin at MSG around 1974. Awesome show and Dazed and Confused was incredible.
I never got to see them, was 13 when John Bonham died.
I did see Jimmy Page & Robert Plant together about 30 years ago,, figured that was as close as I'll ever get.
More women acting like men. Western women at their finest. TRASH!
i have always thought MG was his best # by far. got about 3 versions
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.
I saw Edgar & Johnny Winter at a bar outside Daytona Beach, in '87 or '88.
Speaking of the Allmans, had a little bit of a run-in with Greg about the same time-frame. I worked at a hotel there and told him he couldn't park in the lot. He played the 'do you know who I am' card. I had his car towed.
Just some other great players from the edges ..

There are others I could point to but you gents have already mentioned some really great ones.

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!
All great one I always mention is Vito Bratta. Granted White Lion was a bit weak (gay lol) his guitar playing is fuckin unreal. Solos I’ve seen in person I’d rank him one. Eddie Van Halen 2 Dave Mustain 3 Buddy guy 4.
I’ve seen Gary Hoey a couple times in small personal venues. He puts on a heck of a show, and so much music coming out of a three man band. Pretty incredible. Would go see him again in a heartbeat and if you get the chance to see him, don’t pass it up.
I don't think Jr Brown and his guitsteel has been mentioned
We need more good, creative advertising… in a world of disgusting DEI augmented by CGI…
What’s a good ad, you ask?
And the back story. Old… but brilliant!
