Nick..........like to see your top ten......would be interesting.
Did Bill Brufford play drums with King Crimson before or after he played with YES? Plus how many albums did 'UK' another band Brufford was in I think release? I realise this isn't connected with guitarist but I thought you might know.

Not 10, but my favourite guitarists:

David Gilmour (No need to say which band hes from!)
Pete Townshend (The Who)
Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin)
Alex Lifeson (Rush)
Jimi Hendrix
Eric Clapton
Slash (Guns N Roses/ Velvet Revolver)

4. Jimi Hendrix
5. Jimmy Page
6. Peter Green
7. Scott Gorham / Brian Robertson as dual guitarists in Thin Lizzy
