Randy














































Jackson

[MSGfan]

I'm sure he was already mentioned but you just have to hear
John Sykes back in his "Tygers of Pan Tang" days!!
"Spellbound" and "Crazy Nights" are two of the best NWOBHM albums ever!!
And let's not forget Ronnie Le Tekro of "TNT"
His style and guitar tone on the first album "Knights of the new Thunder" is one of the best of the`80's!!

[agresivo]

Criss Oliva, John Sykes and Jake E. Lee

Definitely, my favourite guitarrists along with EVH, Rhoads and Blackmore.

I always thought Angus was a POS player lol. to each his own

Angus has never impressed me very much technically, but he has so much feel and expression, I love listening to him anyway.

It's subjective..ya know.

I think Angus rules..nobody here could write, play or sound like Angus if I rubbed a billion bucks on their sack..

I can't write or play like Neil Young, nor do I want to..but he's a fuggin' genuis writer to so many, and I can see why. That shit comes from his heart. It's not what you play, but how you play it.

Musicians that create from their heart, for the love of music is genuine. Then you have generic B-grade misfucks that become popular because of trends or image.

The more "popular" a current pop artist is, the more they actually suck balls.

The Most underated/forgotten guitarist is........

Ronnie Le Tekro Of TNT


Seems like everyone forgot him.

[aerostar2005]

Terry Kath

God I forgot about Terry Kath. He was a major influence for me. Also Rod Price Of Foghat still sends chills down my spine. RIP for both of these great guitarist

[aerostar2005]

Here's one more for ya...

GREG HOWE!!!!

[Larz]

Gary Pihl of Sammy Hagar and later Boston.

[horns666]

Some very valid mentions!!!

Jeff Loomis..short lived GW section but too busy..never on cover. He's been the metal KING of shred..IMO

*Uli Roth..his playing/influence speak for themselves.. fuggums.

Magnus Karlsson..who?

Jorn Viggo Lofstad...who?

Olaf Lenk..who?

Mike Romeo...some know him

The Amott bros..what a team!!!

*Frank Marino..shredding like nobody's biz in the 70's. He intense fire, feel, speed, emotion..that went unoticed by most..and is a "Wayne's World" joke.

My main picks would be Uli Roth and Frank Marino..what do have to do to get a major prop by a publication. They influenced so many and been shredding their fingers to the bone since 1971..fuggums
