The order is completely farked up after Jimi Hendrix.

For Chrissake, Duana Allman is above Eddie Van Halen by 68 spots. Even people who listen to Michael Jackson know that Eddie Van Halen was a guitar playing pioneer.

Anyway, I haven't bought Rolling Stone in a year. The only regular good thing to come out of RS is the "Life is Hell" comics by Matt Groening and now "Get Your War On" comics.

It such a bad list and poorly ordered, it's not funny.

Kirk Hammett above Eddie Van Halen for godssake!

The Guitar World issue of the greatest guitarists last year was so much better and it didn't do b.u.l.l.s.h.i.t ordering. It had the decency to break the guitarists to categories.

Hell, they even included Nigel Tufnel. Now how can anyone forget Nigel!
