He will always be #1 to me, of course!   :)

It is interesting to read who is where on the list, though.   John Lennon at #55, but Lindsey Buckingham at #100?    Doesn't make sense!  ::)

I could bring on some versions of "Sultans" that would make us happy that MK is still in the Top 100...  ;D

Yes, of  course. I was only kidding!  :)

It is still the MK reference song. As someone pointed out lately, he would not be able to judge Ian Thomas as MK's new drummer until he has heard him
drumming on Sultans. But that's another story of course, this is about guitarists. I guess MK couldn't care less if he is in the list or not...

Those rankings are as corrupt as a Fifa election!

You know I always check the monthly guitar mags in the stands in hope that one day the spotlight will fall on Knop/DS, but no! Only endless Pink Floyd, Prog Rock, Led Zeppelin specials - god I even saw a whole magazine dedicated to Jack White the other day!!  :disbelief
Hey, i`ve got a truffle dog - finally a song the ordinary man can relate too!

I was watching the Martin Scorcese film about George Harrison the other day, and Paul McCartney was saying that when he and John started The Beatles, they didn't have a guitarist, because they didn't consider either of themselves good enough - then George turned up and solved the problem!     Now, amazingly, we have John Lennon at # 55 on the RS list - just 11 places behind MK and 45 places ahead of Lindsey Buckingham!    ::)

It's only a question of sex, drugs, scandals, suicides and being an illuminati puppet.
According to what we know, MK is not the best at that game.
My personal bet is sooner or later Lady Gaga or Rihanna will reach RS top ten Guitarists.
