Favorite guitar players

and solos and such...
I love guitar and am sure many others do, so who are your favorites.
I'll start it off with John Lee Hooker.

 

The ones on drugs.

 

Tim Reynolds

 

Johnny Marr and Peter Buck and of course Paul Weller.

 

Yep.

I'll add Dick Dale.

 

Jorma Kaukonen.

Others in regular rotation
Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, John Fogerty, John Frusciante, Warren Haynes, Luther Allison, J.B. Hutto, Otis Rush, Freddie King, Ed Mundell, Mike Campbell, Luther Dickinson, Finn Ryan, Josh Homme, Dave Van Ronk and even though some may scoff, Springsteen. A few local players no one would know.

 

Hendrix. Django Reinhardt. Stevie Ray Vaughan. Andres Segovia.

 

Been there, done that: http://www.sportsjournalists.com/forum/posts/2882411/

For the record, my choice on that thread was Junior Brown and the solo in Highway Patrol.

I stand by that choice.

 

Jimi, SRV, Santana

 

Eddie Hazel. Funkadelic.

 

I've posted about these guys before, but if you dig gypsy jazz you check out these guys:
