Alex Lifeson...why is he not looked upon as a god?

   The reason he's not looked upon as a god is because within mainstream circles he simply isn't as cool or flashy and he plays prog. Simple. Not many prog guitarists are "guitar gods" within mainstrem circles.

The reason he's not a god within prog circles is because the proggers know of John McLaughlin, Al Di Meola, Fripp, Hackett and Howe who are just generally better players.
