[fat_mike]

also did it by poaching the best radio hosts on the planet(matched only by father Bob and John Safran) in Roy and HG

 

[Non Terminator]

Everyone has had countdowns lately.
Not only Triple bloody J.

 

[simmo1]

Hutchence and Garret being there is just Aussie patriotism.

Easily should have been Freddie Mercury.

 

[Non Terminator]

Especially for One Vision.

[Flapper]

God that's an awful list. Guns N Roses covers aren't good unless they're on The Spaghetti Incident, but mainly it's just so boring! MMM in a nutshell I guess.

 

[Non Terminator]

Yeah I second that. A terrible list imo.

 

[the_flight_of_the_magpie]

Tomorrows list is best guitarist of all time

 

[simmo1]

lol get ready for 10 sh*thouse mainstream guitarists.

 

[Solid]

Kurt Cobain

List needs less Peter Garrett and more Roger Daltry. As for Sting? May as well named one of the Gibb brothers.

Freddie Mercury was best front man of all time. f**king lungs on the dude.

[the_flight_of_the_magpie]

No Tom Morello, Dimebag, Hetfield or Hammett crap list

 

[Non Terminator]

I rate a few of those guitarists in the list. Better than I thought it would be from Triple M. Surprised they included Satriani there. The Edge and Ian Moss are massive wtf's though.

 

[Non Terminator]

No Tom Morello, Dimebag, Hetfield or Hammett crap list

Aww poor thrashies.
Lemme ask a serious question, how many of the guitarists on that top ten do you rate?

 

[Flapper]

Triple M, easily the worst run radio station in history. Sacks the shows that are actually doing the station good, listeners abandon it like the Hindenburg, then tries to win them back with this boring sh*t? Good God they may be good guitarists, but what a f**king tedious list.

 

[the_flight_of_the_magpie]

I rate Page, Hendrix, Satriani and Young.

FFS Tom Morello was in the top 10 guitarists of all time in Guitar Magazine and he aint a Thrashie

 

[Non Terminator]

No even May? Ouch.
I'm not the biggest Morello fan, but he has talent. It's not what Triple M would play though I suppose.

 

[Eelementary]

The list has credibility imo because it included Angus Young. One of the most under-rated guitarrists simply because he played conceptually simple riffs. But man, is he good.
