being amazing is someone who is just fucking great, I mean, almost untouchable in his style in that time, can we agree on that?
Then Django Reinhardt was amazing. Jeff Beck is amazing.
Someone like John Petrucci ain’t.

Let’s be honest… Prince, while admittedly a production and song writing genius (IMO), a shoe-in in the RnR Hall of Fame (or some Hall of Fame), a major musical influence of mine, and an accomplished musician on several instruments, he is not an extraordinary guitar player.
Oh, he’s good, and he can jam, and he can faux masturbate his axe, and perhaps there’s no midget sexier than him with a guitar (OK, that was homo), but he’s not near the same level as a Jimi Hendrix, or an Eddie VH, or an SRV, or a John Petrucci for that matter.

Spoken like someone who isn’t an accomplished musician at all.
That about right?

I don’t need to go into my background in music to prove anything to you. It’s just sad and childish when someone feels the need to insult another persons taste in music. You’re just disrespecting people for who the hell knows why. Sad.
Tony Macalpine is a beast

Well, I’m an accomplished drummer who gets hired to do gigs in the realm of funk, jazz, rock, folk music etc., and also get studio calls, however, this is in Norway, so you won’t have heard about the kind of people I get to play with anyway. Plus, this ain’t about me, I was merely pointing out that reading about who you some of you find amazing, is funny to me.

What? Disrespecting people? If you were to ask mr. Petrucci himself if he was in the same league as Django, he would simply laugh and say no.
Note that John Petrucci is a fine prog guitarist, a very good one, but he’s just not in the same league as someone as Django.

Dimebag. The solo starts @ :47 and the outro will take your soul.
Flood is my favorite solo of all time. Well in my top 3 anyway. Here are a couple of others:
Metallica - One (the solo that made me want to play lead.)
Ozzy - Perry Mason
Oh and Satch.

You know how you guys feel when people who know nothing about working out talk about how jacked Brad Pitt was in fight club?
As a musician, I get that exact same feeling reading who you think are “amazing”.[/quote]
You’re pretty fucking ridiculous. There’s a difference between saying Brad Pitt is jacked, something that can clearly be measured and quantified, and saying that such-and-such a guitarist is amazing as that’s purely based on personal opinion.
Somebody might not like jazz, so to him, Django might not be all that amazing.
and for classical guitar, which I wanted to play but nooooooo I learned cello, here is Italian guitarist Alberto Mesirca playing Introduzionne & Capriccio, composed by Giulio Regondi
And this is pretty wonderful, The Edge playing solo and singing Sunday, Bloody Sunday.

I don’t like jazz, I like the blues, I do not like jazz.
