Allman Brothers Band is a great candidate.
I think Dane has something with Boston though. Even though the song was written before I was born and I have heard it countless times, "Peace of Mind" is still such a fantastic piece of musicmanship to me. It is such a rounded and complete guitar composition, you can tell that it was written by someone who is a total perfectionist.
I wouldn't call it the "greatest" song ever and not even on a short list of my favorites, but he really squared the circle as a composer on that one IMO.
