    Django Reinhardt - now there's a name you don't hear every day.

    A great guitarist who sometimes follows in his footsteps and may have received no mention here is John Jorgenson:



    He did some nice work with the Hellecasters, too:

    I'm sure Robert Fripp's name got thrown out there but his sidekick in King Crimson - Adrian Belew - is a hell of a guitar player, too...

    Looks like this O/P was banned.

    Old 2011 thread too.

    Now is where I next go and ferret-out who dug it up?

    Looks like this is the bump.

    6 posts only back in Feb of this year then he disappeared.

    Maybe he forgot his log-in and password ??

    Ok now that I understand the thread history I'll answer the banned O/P's question which was bumped by the short visitor.

    Paul McCartney is probably my favorite overall guitarist. He was actually a left handed bass player, but by the time of Wings he was playing all instruments including lead and rhythm guitar and piano.

    Words can't tell you how much I love that Slash is in Guns N' Roses again.

    So many great ones, but a great one who has sort of flown under the radar for many years is Robben Ford. If you want to watch a master ...

    • Britain has a woman Prime Minister.
    • And Guns N' Roses are back together again.

    Another great piece of backing here by an unknown guitarist, we kids lurved the loud insolent rebellious twanging of electric guitars in the classic years of the late 50's-early 60's..:)

    In an interview a few years ago, a rock musician (I forget who) said that when he had his first guitar as a young teenager in the 60's he used to like trying to play the opening 10 seconds intro of the Monkees 'Last Train to Clarksville'-

    I'll toss Brian Setzer in to the ring. He has all the talent of the metal guys, and he has tone for days.
