I was aware. I mean, hey, it's a Rolling Stone poll! What should anyone expect? And especially considering the source, no Frampton? No Walsh? (BTW, if Shelfie really, really wants to....Frampton lives about an hour from here and if you haven't seen him in a while, well, let's just say that those flowing locks are no longer a distinguishing characteristic...)

I thought about including him with those jazz greats but I didn't think there'd be too many who'd even recognize the name...correctly spelled!

I was thinking the same thing about Vai and Satriani...some of these guys were good guitarists in good bands...but c'mon, where's the love?

9 Jimmy Page of Led ZeppelinThis is where my vote goes. Glad to see he's still in the Top 10

I was a little disappointed that Satriani and Vai didn't make the list too.
Duane Allman at number 2 surprised me, he had such a short career. His work with Derek and the Domino's was his best, IMHO

You mean Roy Clark was snubbed on this list? Obviously the polsters never watched much Hee Haw

Whoa! Let's not talk down on poor ol' Roy. And speaking of Hee Haw and country and bluegrass music, and I'm not saying he's either one but...what about Chet Atkins? That boy can flat out play the guitar.
Nope, not on the list but, it's Rolling Stone.
