So many phenomenal guitar players (in many genre's). In no particular order for me: Tommy Emmanuel, Guthrie Govan, Steve Howe, Eddie Van Halen, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Alex Lifeson, David Gilmour, Jimmy Page, Andy Summers, Robin Trower, Allan Holdsworth, Al Di Meola, Steve Stevens, Carlos Santana, Jimi Hendrix, Nile Rodgers & Tony Iommi . . . (however) There is No Best / There is No Greatest = it's who moves and inspires you.

This is bullshit....the most important influence in Iommi's career is Django Reinhardt as he has repeated numerous time throughout his career. When Iommi lost the tip of his right hand index in a manufacture accident, it was Reinhardt music that convinced him that he could still be a guitar player.

He lost the tips of his right medium and ring fingers, not the index.

I was lucky enough to see Van Halen on their first British gigs supporting Sabbath. What a gig two rows from the front.

WTF? Eddie was 14,15 when Sabbath broke. Perhaps a year or two younger during Iommi's brief Tenure with Tull. What nonsense

@@chriscoughlin9289 Van Halen opened for Black Sabboth in 1978 on Black Sabboths 10th anniversary tour. I saw the show at Madison Square Garden in NYC . Interesting fact :: Van Halen was the only opening act that I have seen that did an encore, they played the whole 1st album and DLR said they didn't have any other songs so they did Mississippi Queen as the encore

I seem to remember he really liked jazz and heavy blues guitar.. if he was ever enamored with Buddy Holly or Chuck Berry, I'd have to say he was a little kid at the time. This video appears pat & contrived.🫨

Yep - Steve's tapping is on display throughout his fretwork on Genesis Live - as it was during the performance that I caught of the 1975 tour of 'The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway'

@@chriscoughlin9289 Van Halen sounds nothing like Steve Hackett, regardless of whether Hackett tapped or not. In fact a lot of people tapped before both Van Halen and Hackett. But Van Halen's style was widely copied.

@@zemlidrakona2915 And Iommi sounds nothing like Greeny - another player that Iommi - and virtually everybody else on the British Blues revival scene - cites as a profound influence. Just ask the guys in Priest - who have covered 'Green Manalishi' for decades. What's your point?

@@zemlidrakona2915 If there are 'a lot' then it should be no problem to cite them and their popularity. Popularity on a scale of, say, Genesis circa 1974-75 - whose 'Lamb' tour sold out in minutes. Quit with the idiocy - I never contended that the guy INVENTED the technique - as countless critics assert without a backward glance when talking about Eddie and his legacy.
