There's no need to prove cred by dropping any legendary names, you know. Next someone will doubtless say Robert Johnson.

Seeing Prince back in 96 at the Capital Ballroom was without a doubt one of my top 5 concerts I've ever been too!
The line wrapped all the way around the building and now parking lot at Nation to get in. Prince played for 3 1/2 hours! 1/2 hour set included Doug E. Fresh with Prince & Co. as backing band! With Larry Graham on bass they jammed out three Sly and the Family Stone tunes as well. For a four hour show total and with the old setup of the club it was truly awesome!
Prince is just an all around genius of a musician...he's as much of a badass on piano as he is on the guitar! :)

I don't feel like playing this list game but I do want to include ...
Phil Manzenera (Roxy Music / 801)
Oh yeah, and Dupek, wasn't John Goodsall one of those often session players or with Godley and Cream or Soft Machine or Matching Mole or Brand X? I can't remember and don't feel like researching now. I definitely know his name from some earlier works. Might have worked with Brian Eno or King Crimson.
-
Jag: Yes, yes & YES!
-----
I should add a coda to the list: Besides no legends, No stiffs either.
Anyone who said Hendrix/Gatton/Bronson/Chunders go to the end of the line.
-
For Rock...
Greg Ginn
Jeff Buckley
Lou Reed
Thurston Moore/Lee Ranaldo
Joe Strummer

ALso Phil did guitar work on Eno's solo "pop" albums.

I would choose classical guitarists:
Julian Bream
Andres Segovia
Kazuhito Yamashita
Manuel Barrueco
Jozsef Eotvos
Try Eotvos playing Goldberg Variation 1 (http://mitglied.lycos.de/attacca/var1.mp2)

Yes, yes..grossly underrated.
Why does nobody ever bring up Carlos Alomar...he's definately one of the greats.

He fell out of favor after he spit in that umpire's face.

He's still with us, although his brother is no longer in the band (due, in part, to the smack).

Can't believe I forgot Manzanera and Alomar, two all-time favorites. I like Chris Spedding, Mick Taylor and Link Wray too. Not to mention DC's other late guitar hero, Roy Buchanan. Five is not enough!
