Top 20 Guitarist's *of the last 25 years*

[Richard A Thackeray]

Johnny Marr of the Smiths

Good call!!!

Dunno if he'd make anybody else's top twenty, but he certainly tops mine - the sadly missed Stuart Adamson

A great!, sadly taken away
Liked him, with The Skids too

A real story teller in his writing, with songs like 'Chance', 'Come Back To Me', Where The Rose Is Sown' etc..

 

[Tin Pot]

I don't know how you're classing 75% of these guys as being "of the last 25 yrs" if they were famous 30 years ago.

 

[raleighnut]

Surely Richard Thompson deserves a mention (I just like this song though)

[Shut Up Legs]

 

[AndyRM]

Jeff Waters or Randy Rhoads for me.

I can't speak for anyone else but I forget that it's that long ago

We mustn't forget about the devastating and remarkable Allan Holdsworth:

 

[ianrauk]

Jeff Waters or Randy Rhoads for me.

Randy died 34 years ago

 

[Hitchington]

George Benson

 

[TVC]

Seasick steve, who needs a proper guitar?

 

[threebikesmcginty]

Seeing as the 25 year bit obvs is being totally ignored here's two of the finest guitarists ever. And they were both alive within the time frame. And it was released in 1992 so just in!

 

[AndyRM]

Randy died 34 years ago

Jeebus, you're right! Got that fairly spectacularly wrong. I'll go for Dylan Carson instead.

 

[Maverick Goose]

The rules are set & deviation shall be met with the curse of STEPS on your soul.

Faye to go Ste!

 

[SteCenturion]
