Sorry to double post, couldn't attach a youtube vide earlier, and had to draw attention to that groove.

He's not on Candy Rat, but yeah, I dislike that stable too. Talented people, just not my buzz. Mongrain, composition wise has some moments that kill me.

Good call!

I was struggling to think of some, and these two may be stretching it a bit, but here goes:

Johnny Ramone - Mosrite into a Marshall at full blast, no pedals in between. And yet no one ever sounded quite like him.

Keith Levene of Public Image Limited - His gear was really minimal. From an interview in 1985:

"Guitarists always ask me, 'What effects do you use, do you use an echoplex?' I'd say, 'A guitar, through a twin reverb,' and they are really surprised." He points out proudly: "When people say I sound like two guitarists, they mean because of the amount of sounds and harmonics that I generate." He shyly adds: "And I like that."


I don't think that's true of EVERYTHING he did in PiL though - there's definitely flanger on "Theme", and some chorus here and there, but that's literally it. He's definitely someone who created sounds through the way he attacks the guitar rather than using gadgetry to alter the sound. People should be issued with those first two PiL albums at birth.
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey... stuff.

OOOOOooooohhhh, Spiteface's Johnny Ramone comment reminded me of Jesse F. Keeler as far as bassists go. The only effect he used on You're a Woman I'm a Machine was a chorus for the feedback on the intro of Turn It Out, yet his sound is so astoundingly crunchy and gratifyingly balls-to-the-wall.
