#96 - The Rolling Stone List of 250 Greatest Guitarists

Rolling Stone Magazine is at it again! Another list specifically crafted to make music fans' heads spin! This time they count down their ranking of the 250 Greatest Guitarists of All Time! And, this being Rolling Stone, there are both some very odd inclusions and exclusions. Anthony and Alan dive into this controversial list and highlight some of their faves, like Eddie Van Halen, David Gilmour, Prince, Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore, HER, Steve Hackett, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Mark Knopfler, and more. Even A Taste of Honey get a shout-out! Then Anthony gives us his personal Top 10, and Alan shares a few names who aren't on the list that he can't wrap his head around.

If you want to peruse the list for yourself, please GO HERE.
