He's got over 5700 friends. Shocked

He could have a future, if he can keep from being distracted by girls.

I agree with most of this list. Except I don't think that Carlos Santana (#28) is greater than Angus Young (#50) or Keith Richards (#51).

Am I blind or is that a list with no Marc Ribot and no Lou Reed !?
Oh well.

If famous players are left off the list, that must mean they aren't considered to be rock musicians. So...

Ry Cooder is listed as a rock musician, but not Bonnie Raitt;

Roy Buchanan is listed as rock, but not Danny Gatton;

Yngvie Malmsten and John McLaughlin are listed, but not Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, or even T-Bone Walker.

Wow, that's pretty incredible. When I was in Belgium last month, seeing friends, there was this 10 year old boy, who was absolutely incredible on the guitar. It was amazing all the stuff he could do on that thing.
