What bloggers r saying:
I agree with Prince. He should be bu up there in the top 3 in the other top
100. I saw him play a powertrio set on 28th august that rivals Hendrix's
best days
he's amazing!!
Prince is definitely the most underrated of all time, but What about Peter
Buck, Adam Jones, Dimebag and Buckethead?
Oh, but you did at least get the top spot right. Big ups to Prince.
Some of these are great picks: Prince at #1,
Yeah, Prince deserves the top spot! He is the guitar guru! I loved to see
him play his guitar in London!!! He seems to be totally in love with the
instrument, and his technique is amazing!!! So effordless, so fast, so
imaginative!
