I should add -- I don't think Skaggs should be on the list, just noting that he plays guitar mighty well. Tony Rice deserves it more than he does -- can't remember though if I saw Rice on the list.
Oh, other country pickers I can remember seeing on the list -- Merle Travis and Doc Watson.

Like Vince Gill (whom I can't stand as a singer), Skaggs is a master of several instruments. Marty Stuart would be another one. They did have Clarance White ranked pretty high. Many guitarists would think Brent Mason should be included. I forgot to mention previously Danny Gatton, though he's much more than a country/rockabilly picker. But I just remembered another glaring ommission -- James Burton.

Anyway, here's >the top 10: I was pleased that they included Wes Montgomery, who is my all-time favorite guitarist. But there was a real dearth of country musicians, and including Ricky Skaggs? He's a mandolin player, and I can name 50 acoustic guitarists off the top of my head that can play circles around him. The only glaring omissions from my point of view, however, were Don Felder and David Wilcox. ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
