Square Wheels Posted June 16, 2015 Share #1 Posted June 16, 2015 if Jimi Hendrix weren't black, would he still be consistently voted as the greatest rock guitar player ever? What if he played exactly the same, but looked like this? Sorry, but my vote goes soundly for Jimmy Page. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur ★ Posted June 16, 2015 Share #4 Posted June 16, 2015 Jimi Hendrix is well down my list of greatest guitarists. Not even top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share #5 Posted June 16, 2015 I am going to withhold commenting until NeilYoung weighs in.I suspect that's not the real Neil, I think the real one has a space between his names. Also, he's a Canadian, none of them are racists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that missing space was to throw you off. It appears to be working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share #8 Posted June 16, 2015 Stevie Ray Vaughn is near the top of my list. I think I'd put him right behind Jimmy, then David Gilmour would be third.If you ever get the chance to see Lindsey Buckingham play live, you should. I saw him about 5 years ago, amazing show. I think he'd make my top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
