either i miss your point which i highly doubt, you illiterate idiot, or you just dont understand how hard coming clean off alcohol and cocaine is, which SRV managed to do. And how fuckin balling it is to dissolve cocaine in your morning tumbler of pick-me-up.

laihovalo9: you make me angry. srv and hendrix are 2 of the greatest guitarists ever to have lived. im pretty damn sure they could tap if they tried. alexi has got absolutely nothing on srv. look at the control over his guitar and the moods he can create through his guitar, alexi would be lucky to be half as good as srv

how about this...
everyone stop the insulting each other and just respect each others musical tastes.
Laihovalo9 likes children of bodom and other death metal. so be it. yes he does need to learn to appreciate all styles of music to get a full understanding of the artform, but that is his choice wether he does or not.
personally, i agree with the majority of you in saying that SRV and Jimi are Far better musicians than any of these new bands.
to each his own. just enjoy the music!

There's no "best" guitarist anyway. It's all preference.

SRV and Jimi Hendrix are the 2 best electric guitar players of all time!
There will never be someone like them!

I totally agree. I think Stevie is the best while others think Jimi or whoever else. What ever sounds the best for your taste in music is who your going to think is best.

Electric Guitars ...( 9 hours ago by Boabyo)
Electric Guitars have been about for like 70 years and these guys had really short careers - even if someone as good as them comes along and manages to survive long enough they would probablybe classed as being better on the strength of more material.
No matter what you ...( 8 hours ago by grga888)
No matter what you say, cause it really doesn't matter, they are the best of the best, hands down, and it is hardly possible or almost impossible that one day will come such an unique talent and guitar player like them.
thank you so much ...( 5 hours ago by littlemegmeg)
thank you so much for sharing this. I sometimes prefer SRV's instrumental version, I feel more emotion coming from the way Stevie plays it. So much power.

Im sorry but I wouldnt consider a cover musician very artistic...wrestling doesnt but the word flair said do...SRV was just that...a cover artist,a guy obsessed with being hendrix and wasnt original,just another guy trying to be hendrix...

Im sorry but he was everything but himself...unless himself means a hendrix tribute artist...
are you SERIOUS??? ...( 5 hours ago by littlemegmeg)
are you SERIOUS??? you must not own any of SRV's ORIGINAL music. Their styles are COMPLETELY different. Maybe a couple of the songs you identify SRV with just happen to be covers. but you need a serious reality check if this is the case. There is no comparison between the two because they are so different.

wow...what a show of vocabulary excellence and astute line of thought...Im a lot more educated in music than you I can see...you probably have no clue about delta blues,robert johnson,howlin wolf,elmore james,furry lewis, son house,leadbelly,etc...or jeff beck,cream,etc...srv is a good guitarist but not a great musician...and as a closing point,see hendrix's 12 string acoustic version of hear my train comin and maybe that WASP mind will finally open up and say: so thats greatness...

i fully acknowledge hendrix's greatness and i am one who personally feels vaughan comes ever so close to hendrix but inevitably falls short. but in my mind i know those two cannot be compared, no great mind can be justifiably compared to another great mind. however, i also know not to question vaughan's originality, which is evident. that is the main argument, not my knowledge (or supposed lack) of musical history.
