Chinese Democracy is an awesome album IMO. Btw. Buckethead left the band in 2004.

Re: BEST GUITARISTS EVER GAME: Suggestions
I don't wanna seem like every other person out there, but I don't like the new Guns n' Roses. It's like if Iron Maiden disbanded and Bruce Dickinson got together with some musicians and started calling themselves Iron Maiden, It'll probably be a good band none the less but it's not Maiden.

Re: BEST GUITARISTS EVER GAME: Suggestions
It's not the same, because Bruce isn't an original Iron Maiden member, but Axl IS the founder of G'N'R.
G'N'R is Axl's band. He has the right to do whatever he wants with it. I agree that he's an idiot, but not musically. Chinese Democracy is much better than Slash's solo album.

Re: BEST GUITARISTS EVER GAME: Suggestions
As much as I like CD - and I like it a lot - there's no way it is better than Slash's album.It's a great rocking album, one of last year's best albums.I can name almost any song from it and almost any singer on it sounds better nowadays than Axl.While on CD probably the best songs are the ballads plus Better.
And by the way I absolutely love Slash's versions of GNR songs with Myles Kennedy.If both bands were in town I would go for Slash with Myles Kennedy for sure.

Re: BEST GUITARISTS EVER GAME: Suggestions
I know, I already linked those videos, but I thought maybe you want to do the same for more guitarists - some that you wanted to suggest, but were already on the listForostar said:Huh?
Already did that. Hope this is OK:
I would go for sure to G'N'R show because they play my favorite G'N'R song - November Rain. I don't like Myles Kennedy and Slash's solo album is too commercial for my taste. Slash is coming here in ~2 weeks and I won't go, G'N'R were in town last year but I spent all my money on a vacation and couldn't buy the ticketMurder89 said:

Re: BEST GUITARISTS EVER GAME: Suggestions
Aha, cool, thanks for the opportunity. I'll think about it. Maybe I'll leave it with these four. E.g. it isn't easy to show McLaughlin's qualities in one clip. I especially think he wrote great songs for Mahavishnu Orchestra (a band which shined as a collective), but maybe I'll do one of those. And Django sure deserves a clip as well.

Re: BEST GUITARISTS EVER GAME: Suggestions
Sorry I'm a late arrival to this thread, but why wasn't Buck Dharma included?
He's in my personal top five — speed and soul, with a unique, off-kilter phrasing.
Check the outro solo out on this one, starting at about the 4:30 mark.

This poll will last until we get to the Top 10 of Best guitarists game. Then I'll open the suggestions thread for one of these games, and when Best guitarists game ends, one of these games will start.
