That Rolling Stones list lost all street cred with me when they had a punk guitar player like Johnny Ramone in the top 20. Danny Gatton way down at 59 and SRV at 7 is a joke I hope. And I didn't even see Rory Gallagher listed. He should be in top 5. Joan Jett was listed over Robbie Kreiger, Leigh Stevens and Angus Young...LMFAOThis 2008 rolling stones list has it as
1.Jemi Hendrix
2.Duane Allen (Almond brothas)
3.BB King
