Mentioned in the thread earlier, this bloke talks so much sense
So many great guitarists
Like nelson61 alluded to it's not always about the speed but the feel
Alex lifeson from rush is superb , Jeff beck , Jimmy page , satriani, Rory Gallagher, Johnny winter , Robert Cray , Steve Hackett in his early genesis days
But I am a man of metal and for me the king of the riff will always be Tony iommi from Sabbath
But that doesn't stop me appreciating Robert Tripp, Richard Thompson , Jeff Buckley who was a great guitarist who died too young
Let's be honest , the Beatles came up with some great guitar sounds , the little gentle licks of in my life are simple and sound superb which for me is what it's all about
A quick mention of queen's of the stone age , and his former band KYUSS
Josh homme got his fuzzy stoner rock sound by plugging his Les Paul into a bass amp !
When he was in KYUSS , he plugged his Les Paul straight into a bass amp for that dirty soundOriginally Posted by Wales-Bales
Not sure about Kyuss, but for QOTSA the bass amp is part of it, but his main trick is using a Maestro Parametric Filter MPF-1 that was designed by Bob Moog back in the 1970's, which he has since been replaced by a Stone Deaf PDF-1 pedal (which is an enhanced copy of the MPF-1).
Six blade knife from first dire straits album , beautiful sound
I remember the first time I heard Sultans of Swing on the radio. Was like a breath of fresh air.
Ah Gary Moore, my all time favourite.
Yes he used effects but he had so much emotion & feel in his playing.
Could play many style & make them his own, blues, rock, metal, shredding, flamenco etc & often played all those styles in one song.
Shredding just for shreddings sake leaves me a little cold TBH.
Players like for instance Buckethead, although obviously very talented, who just shreds continuously, don"t do a lot for me, although I appreciate shredding has it"s place.
A local hero of mine, & very underrated IMO is wales own Tony Bourge, ex Budgie guitarist
Im in to metal so i would say Synester gates deserves a mention also John 5 very under rated guitarist but the main man has to be dime back incredible guitarist
The edge has a good guitar sound though and that's what it's all about , at least it was when they were a good band and did stuff like bad , I will follow
Yes Tony Bourge was a very good guitaristAh Gary Moore, my all time favourite.

He still is Sludge, this is from a 2013 solo album he released (the first in about 20 years I think) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7gpK2RkZBw
Bit more mellow & laid back now than when he was in Budgie & Tredegar but he was 64 when he recorded the above (he"s 68 now).
Still a class player though, very underrated IMO
PANTERA were a great band and dimebag Darrell a great guitarist
Saw them in Newport and the riff to walk is simply superb
The outro to floods is one of the best things I've heard
He deffo plugged his Gibson into a bass amp when he was in KYUSSNot sure about Kyuss, but for QOTSA the bass amp is part of it, but his main trick is using a Maestro Parametric Filter MPF-1 that was designed by Bob Moog back in the 1970's, which he has since been replaced by a Stone Deaf PDF-1 pedal (which is an enhanced copy of the MPF-1).
Indeed he is , breadfan is such a riff heavy song !He still is Sludge, this is from a 2013 solo album he released (the first in about 20 years I think) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7gpK2RkZBw

When all is said and done, music should simply have the power to do this ..
Of the Glastonbury sing alongs and crowd participation IMO, don't come much batter than this
It's brilliant , mind you PANTERA had a great back line bassist and drummer laying the foundation for dimebag to do his stuff , a real powerhouse of a band
Those flags get on my tits though , wave one of those around at a metal gig and you would get a bloody good leathering , I am too old for the moshpit now
Great band
I wonder if this song is about drugs ???
I rather think it is
