Pure class. Going to see him at the Bridgewater Hall in October.
 
Personal faves include Hendrix and Page. Glad to see a mention for Stevie Ray - his brother Jimmy Vaughan is pretty good too, very different style to SRV, laid back almost understated, saw him supporting Buddy Guy up in Newcastle a few years back. Got to add Ritchie Blackmore and Tony Iommi.

Prince whilst not the best always seems to go unnoticed.

Nuno Bettencourt ain't bad either.

Couldn't agree more, Prince was absolutely fantastic and never gets credit. There isn't a single style or technique that he didn't seem to master and the notes actually made sense and told a story.

Obligatory clip:
