Gary Rossington!
Lindsey Buckingham is also pretty good, and I like Brian Setzer

Yeah, but this is purposely a non-prog poll, as per the title.

Which is why it's perplexing, because it's in "Prog Polls."

That totally makes sense.

EDIT: No, it's not in prog polls. My sarcasm is on nothing, here. My apologies.



well there are the purists who think that jazz-fusion is not prog hahahha... not that I do of course.

1/ Hendrix

2/ Randy Rhoads

3/ Ritchie Blackmore

4/ Eddie Van Halen

and Jimmy Page is also quite good

By the way, very long time ago I heard rumours that Page failed an audition for Mercyful Fate, and he was told he is not enough technically skilled to play for them there. Don't know if it's true...
