I don't think he hates today's music, or favours old music specifically - it's just more biased to classic icons of mainstream rock and blues, and very traditional, 'normal' guitar technique - yeah, some of these guys were the ones who invented it, but there are other ways to play guitar that are very different. So that's a bit predictable. And even in technical terms, there are so many technical guitarists.

Aside from some of the ones you (and the others) have mentioned, one sorely missing from the list is Robert Fripp. His contribution to modern music in general and mind-blowingly unconventional guitar playing specifically is always going to be undervalued I'm afraid.
