Title: Oh dear..not another poll
Post by: Simon on March 30, 2010, 02:12:52 PM

This time it's the BBC running a poll of best guitarists of the last 30 years. No MK though. It looks like it is going to be won by someones favourite though rather than the (subjective) best. A few rhythm guitarists here, John Denver could have qualified or even Willie Nelson!

Genuinely, Willie Nelson is probably my second favourite guitarist after MK. Like MK, he has an immediately recognisable style that no one else can copy (I've tried :( )
