Hey Andrew, who is your favorite guitarist?

There are lots of players I love to listen to.
Really my favorite player at the moment is Lenny Breau.
Absolutely deep stuff!

But no one makes me feel like Neal Schon of Journey.
Obviously someone like Lenny is light years away from Neal.
But my point here is about....mainstream rock players.....and Neal is one of the best.

Neals' got a great touch, super tasty phrasing, and always finds a great melody.
It is difficult,if not impossible,to name another mainstream
guitarist who plays more lyrical solos.
More than that, his signature chord progressions really sing.

Mr.Schon's playing connected to my heart in my youth, and has stayed with me.
I saw Journey in 1981 at the Summit in Houston.
That show has recently been released as a DVD.
How cool is that? I feel lucky to have seen Journey in their prime.
To me, the 1981 band is the best Journey line-up, Schon,S. Perry,J. Cain, R.Valory and S. Smith.
These guys wrote fantastic music, and were great live.

Neal has also played in many other great projects, and his instrumental solo records are excellent.
 
Other players I really admire and love to listen to:
Lenny Breau,
Alex Lifeson, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson ,Wes Montgomery, Billy Gibbons, Danny Gatton, George Benson,
Steve Morse, Jimmy Page, Guthrie Govan, Brent Mason, and Frank Gambale to name a few!

As always, feel free to post comments.
