   One of my favorite guitarists whom no one ever mentions is Bill Nelson of Be Bop Deluxe. He's very creative and has a unique style.

	Hi all. Been listening to a lot of varied music lately and after the recent Howe/Hackett poll and other polls about Gilmour, Fripp, Zappa, etc.I started thinking about other excellent guitar players who don't get the credit and appreciation they deserve outside prog circles. I didn't want to make a random list and do a poll. I'm really interested to hear who my fellow PA members come up with. It may introduce me, and maybe others, to some players we don't know. For me there are 2 obvious ones: Martin Barre of Jethro Tull and Gary Green of Gentle Giant. Outside of fans of these bands you don't hear much about how great these 2 are. They were such integral parts of those bands, it's impossible to imagine anyone else contributing some of the amazing work they did to JT and GG. Have fun with this. Looking forward to seeing your thoughts!!
