The OC Candidates Thread

[MovingZen]

Why can’t we just have a music thread? Every would be easier for a lot of us to avoid, easier for some to talk about the same thing, and a lot less detailed threads. As in every thread is turning into same thing. That’s no disrespect to the posters but weeding thru this to look at updates is **** near impossible at this point

There are no updates.

[TRick72]

If we get Candle, is he definitely running a pistol?

Is Prospect Park worth a trip? @JustAFanHTX @htownkidd

Clapton seemed to think Greg Allman was a guitar God.

Gregg and Duane were both great. Love me some Allman Brothers

I would rather read somebody talk about jumping off a roof because they think we're hiring Arroyo 100 times in a row than having to sift through all this off topic BS.

In the History of Rock....there isn't 5 guitarists better than EVH

EVH's lead playing gets its due, but I think his rhythm playing and riff-writing is pretty underrated.

 

[SWFLHurricane]

A few more Great Guitarists.....
Allen Collins of Skynyrd
Billy Gibbons ZZ Top
Scott Gorman, Brian Robertson and Gary Moore- Thin Lizzy
Malmsteen
Rudolph Schenker Scorpions
Michael Shenker UFO

0% chance you get any relevant info until it's too late. Better off refreshing Twitter.

Also Pat Metheny and Django Reinhardt. If we're talking guitarists regardless of genre.

Stevie Ray Vaughan > Clapton and I love em both.

SRV is on my Mt. Rushmore thats for sure.
If I had to pick 4 they'd be SRV, Jimi, EVH and Eric Johnson.

 

[SWFLHurricane]

Brian May of Queen is another Top 10 Guitarist...

 

[TRick72]

Any Thin Lizzie fans in here

Not sure but pretty certain there’s atleast one Big Lizzo fan

I saw Pat Methany yrs ago

Let me introduce you then to this poster and his thread:

Is there another Lashlee out there?

I can name plenty of better Guitarists than Clapton....He was Great....but no way #2

food, women, music are some of the subjects that are very subjective, just an opinion, not gospel.

 

[KANE]

Stop it....better than Gilmour on Comfortably Numb??....Better than Kath on 25 or 6 to 4??....Better than Angus on Whole Lotta Rosie (last 2 minutes)????...Better than Rhodes on Mr Crowley???.....**** Nah....

The main reason I said that was because Prince was a GUEST on that song. The songs you listed here were written for those guitarists, to have those solos. But that being said, to answer ur question… YES. IMO, better than the 1st 2, and as complex and nuanced as the last 2. His solo, lick for lick, is right there. Not saying his is better than the last 2, but to me, it’d right there.

David Gilmour's guitar solos in the post-Waters era of Pink Floyd are underappreciated. Two big stand outs would be:

On the Turning Away
Poles Apart

 

[SWFLHurricane]

Joe Walsh another all time Great....Especially with the James Gang....
