I'm honored to be in such company. Lefty Phillips (Mudfinger here) certainly belongs up there.

Thanks for all the good tips over the years.

Top 10?, here's what my list would amount to

1-apples
2-0ranges
3-grapes
4- bananas
5- cherries
6-pears
7-tangerines
8-mangos
9-raspberrys
10- blackberries

Apples are so over rated...

And blueberries not on the list???

All mangoes does is play chords, can't be on the list, sorry.

 

[Piston Hurricane]

11. Stage Fright*


*Sorry, but few here can match JoeSatch's speed or P A U L's incredible tone.

So is matching JoeSatch's speed and P A U L's incredible tone - would that allow me to be on your list ?

What ever happened to the art of playing ? Is there something wrong with your own playing ? Remember- it's not how you play - it's what you play !

G, many years ago when I was 'trying" to learn HARD ROCK GUITAR. I looked at magazines. Jimmy+Keith+Skynyrd boys..........these guys seemed like GODS. They had a nonchalance about them-take it or leave it. I lugged my Hondo2 up the street. I said my prayers and listened to my guitar teacher. I got no satisfaction. I could play intro to songs BADLY---Smoke on the Water+Lotta Love+Highway to Hell.........

I quit.

Tried out poetry. I grew hair on my chin........Poetry was a big stroke-fest

I was 23. I took some more lesssons. Bought an SG ;strung it with 13's-56. Teacher was a smug Metal guy. I tried 'stroking" him. Couldn't do it. He was playing fast with no soul. I quit lessons; his hairspray was choking me.

I walked down to the river. I was going to throw Sg into the water. Maybe I could work on cars? Build bird-houses? I heard a cough. A man appeared,

"Hey Tim, what are you doing with that guitar?"
"How do you know my name?"
"I know the name of every failed guitarist."

He reached out and grabbed my Sg. A string end cut my finger. He tuned the guitar..................

I don't recall that guy, Dave.

I don't think too much on any of those fools, they are so forgettable.
