Man, I love this site!

Robert Johnson
Elmore James
Hubert Sumlin
Keith Richards
Hendrix
Beatles
Page
Neil Young
Tony Iommi
John Fogerty(yeah, that's right, wanna fight about it?)
Johnny Marr
Thurston, Lee
Kevin Shields
Adam Franklin(and the other guy from Swervedriver, can't remember his name)
Graham Coxon
Dave Pearce(FSA)

I'm leaving a million people out(well, maybe not a million) that I just can't think of off the top of my head. Definitely all early blues, folk, country, rockabilly players too, there's just too many to list!

[Repeater]

By no means the best players, but some that inspire me (I try to rip them off):

Randy Randall from No Age
Kevin Shields from MBV
Guy Picciotto and Ian Mackaye from Fugazi
Stephen Malkmus and Spiral Stairs from Pavement
Joey Santiago and Frank Black from Pixies

That's about all I can remember for now.

Yowza, where's Nick McCabe?


91-94andahalf..

A Storm in Heaven is a Psych-rock classic...

No Come Down is pretty good too. Saw these guys live, they don't make psychedelic music like they used to..

Maybe they do, but Storm is perfect. Better than Loveless?

Maybe


Check it out!(i'm talking shit, but it is amazing)

Sharrock should be mandatory for joining this forum. Ronson should be required after admittance.
