maddog, with so many names being passed out, you should have titled this....
........"name a great guitarist in alphabetical order"
A--angus young
B--bb king
C--carlos santana
D--duane allman
E--eric clapton...........................<<< that's a pretty good top-5 right there
That's not a bad idea, but even doing it that way would start a debate. This is at least a debate where we can agree that some very worthy names have been mentioned. And frankly, I've noticed some that I'm surprised no one has mentioned, but I'll let someone bring them up. Of all the names thrown out there so far, I would only argue against one of them. Some of the names mentioned were hard to leave off the list. Others were easy. I didn't include some of my favorites because, truthfully, just because I like them doesn't mean they are the best. Ace Frehley, for example. He's good, and he's my favorite, but he's not not top 10 good, and the only reason he would make a top 20 is because he is my favorite.
