I always liked Jimi. It's not so much just the guitar playing with him, but how he fit lyrics with his guitar playing.

I think David Gilmour has the best melodies. They just flow. I don't know how else to describe it.

Eric Clapton had some really cool-sounding stuff, especially with Cream. Some really inventive songs. I always loved White Room. The kazoos sound like a steam whistle and the drumming sounds like a train hitting random gaps in the track. The guitar playing melds the illusion into a song.

Trey Anastasio is a chameleon. He can play anybody's song better then they can play it themselves. He can jam. He can play bluegrass. He can play Beastie Boys.
