One thing people need to remember is that Jimi has been dead close to forty years now, and from what I have read and heard etc. etc. No one, bar none could get the sounds out of a guitar like Hendrix could using the technology of the day.

+1, the only thing I can honestly give to SRV, is that everything he did, he I guess "pimped up"

There's a lot of good Jimi Hendrix stuff and SRV on Myspace music (suprisingly)

I looked up Little Wing, found a crystal clear version of Jimi's I almost thought it wasn't his at first

:O

love blues rock guitarists, and these two are definatly some of the greats

favorite has to be Duane Allman though, made #2 on rollingstones list of top 100 guitarists  :D now that guy could play!

and living guitarists, derek trucks is hands down the best guitar player alive today

the derek and the dominos album "layla and other assorted love songs" has a little wing which is clapton and duane allman which is awesome, duanes on most of that album, plays the slide on layla, its the  signature sound to that song for the whole second half, very few people know thats him...he also wrote and plays the main riff to the song, the man doesnt get all the credit he deserves

The best thing that happened to SRV was a helicoptor crash.





There.  I said it.  I'm glad I said it.  It needed to be said.  I feel better now.

I suppose Rollingstone left Chet Atkins off the 100 greatest guitarists list because they didn't want to compare a professional with amateurs...

How bout we go ALL the way back and look up Robert Johnson. He really started it all. He and Hank of course. Music would definitely not have been so great during the 60's and 70's without those two.

You're right, if he were alive today, he'd just be... a little known musician playing small gigs probably.

i disagree, he was only just taking off, he'd be at clapton status right now

just like my favorite duane allman, died young, the sky was the limit for him too

I killed SRV.

Saw him on Austin City Limits.  Went out and bought an album on cassette.  Then he dies.

I still need a favorite, but I'm afraid he'd die.

HONK!

Robert Johnson wasn't the "start of it all".   Many Blues artists were.   

Willie Dixon (Zeppelin ripped him off excessively and were sued on a couple of occasions for it)
Howlin' Wolf (never gets mentioned in threads like this)
Albert King (ooh that fretboard drips of Delta blues)
Elmore James (one of the Best Slide guitarists of all time, if not the greatest.   Sorry Duane but he was better and you were influenced by him)

Leadbelly is my fav. blues artist and was ripped off by many years later.

Personally, Robert Cray is one of the most underrated, rarely mentioned blues guitarists.

Robert Johnson was recording long before and influenced all the aforementioned. But, you're right, you definitley can't give all the credit to just a couple people.

Chet Atkins... wow I had a nice real to real stereo years a go and one of my reals was of Chet. Amazing what he could do with a 12 string.

My others... SRV and Jimi.

Leadbelly was born more than 20 years before Johnson was born.   But as I said, he's rarely mentioned.   

It's like the Buddy Rich being mentioned in a drumming post, where he's brought up, but only 25% of them ever actually listened to him.

Do you mean he's miming to a prerecorded track?  Couldn't he have done better in the studio?  If he was just going to lip lync, why not just use one of his records?  Make all the excuses you want, this guy suct.

Psst....  the clue is that this clip is on the Comedy channel.  It's a gag.  Yes, the guy "suct", but it's not SRV that "suct". 

But you knew that, right?

Actually, what you are hearing is not SRV playing.  Someone put a "comedy" track over a video of him playing.  I guess you got the joke.
