trailblazing guitarists before jimi hendrix:
chuck berry buddy guy hubert sumlin muddy waters wes montgomery charlie christian jeff beck pete townshend eric clapton sonny sharrock link wray dick dale dude who played with gene vincent lou reed and sterling morrison t-bone walker albert king lonnie mack not to mention tons of soul, garage, surf, blues and rockabilly dudes. it's not like hendrix came out of thin air. plus, FACT: i have a cd of hendrix playing live in greenwich village in '66 and dude was playing straight up r&b/blues with hardly any feedback or anything; it's also interesting to know that this is when the velvet underground were playing out in new york. so i do think hendrix was influenced by the velvets. |

I would like to take this opportunity to clarify that this thread was combative long before I ever showed up in it. sarramkrop, the topic poster with a penchant for gobbledygook, intentionally started this thread to stir up shit and to dredge up tension. All the same arguments, point and counter-point, have been made many times in many other threads. He's quite the lame-brain to (once again) think that his position is a very strong one. |

Yeah, but if you think Sarramkrop is only trying to wind you up, why bite?

is there something like "being the best guitarist" at all?
It is not a sport...every educated musician is better guitar player than...for example Thurston...so what? They often sound lame. Derek Bailey is one of my favorite guitar players. Is he better than Hendrix? No, he's just different...uncomparable. J Mascic is guitar super hero for most of us but I'm pretty sure that a lot of guitar teachers wouldn't recommend his technique... Eric Clapton can play guitar very well...but he simply sucks... I don't care...most of guitar players are pretty annoying in person..such big-egos...("hey, look out! I can play another Led Zep solo" - "oh really!? I can stick my finger into your nose for 7 seconds, dude!") omg... I'm too drunk to give you The Greatest Solution. |

Because I can hardly play guitar at all, I tend to listen to guitarists differently to those who can. I'm not especially overwhelmed by Hendrix's technique because, frankly, I'm overwhelmed by almost all guitarist's technique. What I'm left with is the actual sounds/melodies they produce. I'd definitely say that the intro to Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) is one of the most awesome things I've heard on any instrument. Then again I could say the same about the main riff on The Cramps' New Kind of Kick, but noone could describe Bryan Gregory as - so to speak - a 'great' guitarist. Or maybe they could. Who knows?
At the end of all this, we're only REALLY left with subjectivity. Whoever may or may not be the 'best' pales into insignificance besides who you prefer listening to. I'll always prefer listening to Bryan Gregory over Jimi Hendrix. But that's not to say he's a better guitarist. |

Man, I'm bored with, well, everything right now. So I declare demonrail666 to be the best guitarist ever, cos I said so, innit. So there. You can all disagree all you want, and that's cool, but I'M RIGHT, DAMMIT!
Ahem. As you were, then.

Look guys, I just got annoyed at one more documentary that presents the history of rock in such a dull and inaccurate way, and it made it even worse that it's been told by old men who haven't listened to anything new since The Beach Boys or something, but remain all too smug about giving an account of it at any opportunity. Rock music is some of the laziest music when it comes to evolving, and that could be because a lot of its fans are prone to smoking too many drugs and nod like sheep at any notion of cool that has little to do with the finished product, and those notions are thrown at them on a daily basis. I don't like that because it makes it stagnant, and in a way it tells them to listen to the same 4 records over and over again without checking out so much stuff that has been produced underneath it and is just as valid as what's commonly recognized as the best or most representative of the genre. The fact that the perpetrators are generally ageing dudes who still try to follow the dream makes it worse and more depressing. Good post by Everyneurotic, by the way.

I think that all this leads to a sense that Rock music really is a bit dead in the water now, and probably has been for at least ten years now. The interesting stuff is now so divorced from any kind of traditional Rock format that you can only really look at it with a sense of nostalgia.
