Who is your favorite guitarist?


Recommended Posts

Joey Allen from Warrant. ALWAYS comes out with great solos. Always

I thought Mike Slamer actually played most of them. :unsure:

On the first release Mike did play most of them..he also helped

Joey and Erik construct them to...Joey is really good, Erik is okay..

 

Joey is really good and Erik is a solid Rythm player, nothing more.

Solid rhythm players are probably harder to find... :(

 

That's a very good point but you don't have to worry about that since you can play both lead and rythm. :tumbsup:

True for recording, but live it's nice sometimes to have a solid backing rhythm. Obviously I'm so phenomenally talented that's not really an issue... :anon:

:tumbsup: Backed you do tear it up live!!

I'm not supposed to tell anyone this but Pete was just doing the guitar playing equivalent to lip-synching.

There were actually two midgets back stage at Dakota Rockfest playing all of the guitar parts.

They went by the names of "Mini Pete" and "Minnier Pete". Strangely enough they both were seen drinking Blueberry Coffee. :lol:

Yeah, but it takes TWO midgets to play the complex orchestrations I normally play. ;)

 

Either that or because they have little hands that's why you needed two of them. :lol:

 

You guys were lucky that Damon was able to fit those two little guys in luggage prior to crossing the Canadian border. :tumbsup:

I think I mentioned Ace, Adrian Smith and Mustaine but I didn't mention Ferrari I don't think and him and Bryan Jay are one of my fav Geetar duos. I mentioned them in that thread from a few years ago when we all named are fav Guitar tandems. :tumbsup:

WOW What a question... To go with invention, melodicism, speed, technique, rhythm, soloing ?

Not going in order 'cause there's too much guitar swimming in my head to narrow it down to one !

Hendrix Stevie Ray Al DiMeola Michael Schenker Vinnie Moore

Beck Buddy Guy Michael hedges Gary Moore Joe Satriani

Page Wes Montgomery Jay Graydon Randy Rhoads Yngwie

Clapton Albert King Steve Lukather Eddie Tony McAlpine

Peter Green Robert Johnson Steve Morse Dave Murray Joe Bonamassa

 

 

 

I really like Warren Haynes right now.

 

If you love great acoustic playing check out Sam Pacetti

Nice picks, also couldn't help noticing your favorite CD, I love IME, I've got a few of their CD's, criminally underrated IMHO.

 

Punctuation is for sissies anyway... ;)

thanks, charvel ! "Dig" absolutely blew me away; and still does! I saw them at the Cannery in Nashville right after the release and they were an awesome live band. I really wish they had made more albums.

 

Oh, and I forgot Allan Holdsworth - supposedly from whom EVH got his inspiration for fingertapping...

I'm amazed NO ONE mentioned Brian May; not necessarily THE greatest guitarist ever, but still one of my favorites, along with Schenker, Iommi, Page and Blackmore.

9 years later I reply... duh...

 

Have you heard all of their albums? I didn't know they had done more than Dig for quite some time, but they're all pretty good IMO. :D

    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}
    • Your Eyes - Darkstone (2024) Two versions of my song number 6     https://suno.com/song/e8c1e85b-21ee-4d35-a64b-e786f00944d2   https://suno.com/song/9144c77a-bd7c-49c1-9508-f724d0832fdb
    • Yep, although I was never a massive fan.
    • Yes, celebrating their fifty years. There only two original members left in the band. Dusty might agree with me the Angels died when the original singer passed away.
    • It's just not the same without the Doc though...
