May be a Euro thing, Queen was always much bigger there than in the States.
As for me, no other guitarists have given me more pleasure listening to them than Mick Taylor and Jerry Garcia.
Johnny Thunders would be a distant 3rd, his leads were so outrageous.
The Mick Taylor years were the best imo...

Nana Visitor from DS9?
Kurt Russell?
Not Kurt Russell but I can see why you would say that.

Most of us know who the drummer is here but who is the boy sitting next to him?

Damn, and I thought it was quite an achievement when I could make it outta my dorm room when I was tripping, let alone throw a baseball.
Usually we had one person who was just smoking weed or hash just to keep an eye on things... no one turning into a bird and flying off of the roof... stuff like that. I really doubt this story, the flashing alone would keep anyone from concentrating on anything, much less pitching a MLB game. Best example I can think of flashing is Grace in the Uncle Sam Blues vid from Woodstock.

I don't have a link? The Rory/Jimi stuff runs deep. That said Kath was no slouch either. Dont remember Kath being mentioned.
Hendrix was infatuated with Gallagher upon arriving in the UK. In particular Gallaghers sound he got from a strat. He drove to Cork too see him the day
after his Marquee debut. Went to the Rory Gallagher festival in Ireland a few years back. Was there on business.
Slash played, lots of outrageous players. Recommend it for any fan of Rory, unless there's a pandemic going on.
It is Terry Kath... on an article/interview I'll have to look up. In the meantime, if anyone doesn't exactly know who he is, check this out:

Wasn't there a poll by some rock and roll mag way back where Karen Carpenter won out over John Bonham for "Best Drummer"?
Shouldn't Mike Campbell get a bit of love?
Don't know about the Karen Carpenter thing... sounds like Mad magazine material lol.

May's recent popularity surge is somewhat due to the Queen movie.
When May was 15-16. he hung out in London clubs. At the time, Rory Gallagher was still with Taste.
May would wait until the Taste gig was over and Rory would let him pick his brain, and show him riffs.
It is by no accident May prefers Vox AC30TB amps his whole carear.
Dick Cavett to Jimi Hendrix:
Man , what's it like to be the greatest guitar player in the world?
Jimi: I don't know you would have to ask Rory Galagher.
Thought Jimi mentioned Terry Kath, not Rory.

David Gilmore
Carlos Santana
Jerry Garcia
This finishes the top 10
Thing is, those "pollsters" must be young or didn't look very far back. I would add Jorma, Harvey Mandell, Terry Kath, Glen Campbell, Al Kooper, etc. Way ahead of Brian May.

Guitarists cannot be compared like sports teams. There is art and artistry involved. Great ones are just great.
Joe Pass? Great.
Jimi Herring? Great.
Bruce Cockburn? Great
Alex Skolnick? Great
How many average random humans have even heard of them?
I have heard of all of them... I think, but c'mon... Robert Fripp, Frank Zappa, Steve Howe, Al Dimeola, Jimmy Page, Clapton, Duane Allman... that poll is just what I mentioned, for a laugh.

May is good but not in top 10 IMO.
Not even the top 100 imo... must have been one of those polls where the "team" gets voted on from a fan base.

I don't know if there are any Youtube vids, but Stevie Winwood is just tremendous playing guitar on Traffic's live "On The Road"
Wait. How could you you not have seen this one... only known recorded concert to date of the mostly original Traffic (no Dave Mason). He rips it up pretty good on this film, 1974... my avatar lol. Stoned out pretty good too, acid is fun.

No, he was just a supporting actor on a show, which was a spin-off of another show.

Probably why he is retiring. Hope someone starts a new magazine "Madder!" and offers him work as he wishes.
You know, a guy like this is a perfect example of finding a job/profession you LOVE and make money at. He could have retired whenever he wanted to but kept going till almost 100 years old. Whippersnappers take note lol...

If you listened to my late mother, Mad magazine and the Three Stooges were directly responsible for the decline and fall of western civilization. Damned good sight she never looked at my National Lampoons. ?
Funny stuff... my parents hated the Beatles for similar reasons.
Besides Mad, I used to read the Cracked comics too... but def liked Mad better.

I had no idea that he was still alive much less working... one hell of a run from one of the greats.
