Eisboch

Was listening to a Jazz station a couple of days ago and they were
doing
an all time great guitar countdown. Carlos Santana was 15th and Eric
Clapton ranked 4th. Who else would be high on the list?

I'll betcha Jimi Henrix was number one ... or close.

Really, I have everything he ever did, in three versions And I don't
think he is nearly the best assuming they are looking for technical
skills Now interpretation, could very well be, especially when Mitch
was talking back

I am not a big Jimi Henrix fan, but respect his position in the various
ratings and his heritage.
He was noted more for interpretation, as you say, I think.
I just was never into his type of music.

I liked his version of "Hey Joe" - that's a good one.

He also did a cover of "Smack Water Jack" - (Quincy Jones/Carol King
collaboration) which is out-freakin'-standing.
