I couldn't believe SRV and Clapton had been eliminated.

That's why I made it a spinoff,just goes to prove that this stuff is all subjective and that everyone has their own opinons....no matter how wrong they may be
btw did you check out the Hoey video of Hocus Pocus in the other thread?

i know it's not a popular pick, but this is also not a popularity contest. lukather is one hell of a guitarist, even though he played in Toto

BS. I think this is biased somehow.
If this guy had a play off with Zakk Wylde his guitar strings would pop, and his hair would cath on fire. I see nothing more than a speed player in this guy, and in that case I don't think he's anywhere near Monty Montgomery. |

Angus Young? I guess I missed his sidework, because there is no way he made this list from his 3 chord songs and jr. high solo's he played with ACDC.

Richie Sambora in 5th place is good. I don't know if anyone else in here has had the chance to hear him live but 20 years ago I took a car load of teeny-boppers to a BonJovi concert and I was really surprised at how good of a guitar player he was.
He went into a solo portion of the concert and I thought then he was about as good of a guitar player as I had heard at that point and I had heard Malmsteen and Angus Young in the same concert that year at Kemper when Malmsteen was opening for ACDC. |

That list is full of FAIL!!!
Eric Clapton is Eliminated??? Steve Lukather is #1? He is better the Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughn??? I want some of whatever they are smoking. |

He plays the same memorized blues riffs over and over. He doesn't play with blazing speed, and he doesn't play with any soul. Personally, I think Derrick Trucks, a guitarist that has been touring with Clapton, is much better than Clapton himself. Maybe if that list was comprised on both skill and influence, but I would have to question how many people have been influenced by Steve Lukather. I have been a subscriber to Guitar World magazine since the early 90's, and wasn't positive who Lukather played for. |

I'm tell'n ya that the dude could jam on the guitar. I was thinking at the time that "This guy is way to good to be stuck with BONJOVI".
The dude is good and if you've never had the chance to listen to him live it would be hard to judge IMO. IMO he is a top 10 guitar player. Of course I also think Steve Vai should be on that list. |
