I expected to see him in top 10.

Great post, as usual, Vienna. Fumo and U-crank already said as much but your musical dissertations are one of many reasons we missed you and glad you are back. U-crank was talking about guitarists and ironically enough, I had this same conversation with some people last week.

One guitarist is not better than another as Marcel said. They are just different as their collective influences seem to shine through as other guitarists are an embodiment of their respective influences.

A number of my favorite guitarists like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Tommy Emanuelle, David Gilmour, Ry Cooder, Eric Johnson and Joe Satriani, just to name a few, are all different but that doesn't change the fact that they are all fantastic guitarists.

How about this one from Waylon Jennings with some help from his buddy, Willie Nelson. Try this one on for size, Catfish. :)

Oh forgot to thank you for your reply on my question about which national anthem you liked beside your own.

Stevie Ray Vaughan cited Lonnie Mack as one of his influences along with Jimi Hendrix, Albert Collins, Albert King and others. That's good enough for most people. :)

Yep:Kaleun_Salute:
..And there was a quite a bunch of other guitarist influenced by Mack too:


(from Wikipedia)
Guitarists who have credited Mack as a major or significant influence include Stevie Ray Vaughan (blues rock), Jeff Beck (blues rock, jazz-rock), Ted Nugent (hard rock), Dickey Betts (Southern rock), Warren Haynes (Southern rock), Ray Benson (Western swing), Bootsy Collins (funk), Adrian Belew (progressive rock), and Tyler Morris (multi-genre).[106] Others said to have been similarly influenced include Joe Bonamassa (blues-rock), Eric Clapton (blues-rock), Duane Allman (Southern rock), Gary Rossington (Southern rock), Steve Gaines (Southern rock), Mike Bloomfield (blues-rock), Jerry Garcia (psychedelic rock), Jimi Hendrix (psychedelic blues-rock), Keith Richards (blues-rock), Jimmy Page (blues-rock), and Danny Gatton (blues rock; jazz rock)


I'd say he wasn't without a reason nominated as "a guitar hero of the guitar heroes".
