I guess it depends on your taste, Cobain should even be higher IMO :103631605

It is a list of great guitarist man, you must be confused with one of his other great attributes( possibly his accuracy with a shotguns and heroin needles)

I just listen to the music, and the music that was put out from that Band still sounds good. MOST of the Music listed here is tired and outdated. Thats what I judge it on

You are correct about one thing, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray, Pantera, ect are all very tired and outdated bands, Nirvana on the other hand.....

Not so so sure why I am clueless , Seems like the list that was put out had him pretty high too. I didn't have anything to do with the list either. Majority of people would never give him his due just because of the way things ended.

Most people do give him his due, but as a songwriter not a guitarist. I love Nirvana and listen to it all the time and always play at least one Nirvana tune if I have the guitar in my hands for more than 15 minutes but this thread is titled "100 Greatist Guitarist" not the "100 Most Influential Guitarist" the latter would have him placed pretty high but the former should not even mention him.

95. Jake E. Lee - Cutting Crew, Ozzy, Badlands, Solo

I can't believe no one saw this ?? How could a guitarist ever be in Cutting Crew and Ozzy??? LMAO ! If that was ever the truth Ozzy would have gotten teased for years ! lol! Cutting Crew is a poppy english 80's band. Jake E Lee was in Rough Cutt and Dio before Ozzy.

Roy Clark and Glen Campbell.


Roy Clark, country music legend and 'Hee Haw' star, dead at 85



Country star Roy Clark, the legendary singer and multi-instrumentalist with an ear-to-ear smile who headlined the hit TV show "Hee Haw" for nearly a quarter century, has died. He was 85.
A rep for the singer told Fox News Clark died on Thursday at his Tulsa, Okla., home due to complications from pneumonia.
<iframe id="google_ads_iframe_/4145/fnc/entertainment_1" title="3rd party ad content" name="google_ads_iframe_/4145/fnc/entertainment_1" width="1" height="1" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" data-google-container-id="2" data-load-complete="true" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border-width: 0px; border-style: initial; font: inherit; vertical-align: bottom; width: 1px !important; height: 1px !important;"></iframe>

Clark was the "Hee Haw" host or co-host for its entire 24-year run, with Buck Owens his best-known co-host. The country music and comedy show's last episode aired in 1993, though reruns continued for a few years thereafter.
"'Hee Haw' won't go away. It brings a smile to too many faces," Clark said in 2004, when the show was distributed on VHS and DVD for the first time.
Clark played the guitar, banjo, fiddle, mandolin, harmonica and other instruments. His skills brought him gigs as a guest performer with many top orchestras, including the Boston Pops. In 1976 he even headlined a tour of the Soviet Union, breaking boundaries that were usually closed to Americans.
And of course, he also was a member of the Grand Ole Opry.
His hits included "The Tips of My Fingers" (1963), "Yesterday When I Was Young" (1969), "Come Live With Me" (1973) and "Honeymoon Feeling" (1974). He was also known for his instrumental versions of "Malaguena," on 12-string guitar, and "Ghost Riders in the Sky."

He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2009, and emotionally told the crowd how moving it was "just to be associated yourself with the members of the Country Music Hall of Fame and imagine that your name will be said right along with all the list."
In his 1994 autobiography, "My Life in Spite of Myself," he said "Yesterday, When I Was Young" had "opened a lot of people's eyes not only to what I could do but to the whole fertile and still largely untapped field of country music, from the Glen Campbells and the Kenny Rogerses, right on through to the Garth Brookses and Vince Gills."
Clark was a guest host on "The Tonight Show" several times in the 1960s and 1970s when it was rare for a country performer to land such a role. His fans included not just musicians, but baseball great Mickey Mantle. The Yankees outfielder was moved to tears by "Yesterday When I Was Young" and for years made Clark promise to sing it at his memorial — a request granted after Mantle died in 1995.

Incredible solo

I really don't care for the "Country and Western" style, but I did respect Roy's play as one of the best.



Incredible hand/finger coordination
