They only listed the top 5 in each catagory..

But....

3) Comfortably Numb - David Gilmour

It's nice to see the boys getting a little respect

Yes, it is nice...even though Pink Floyd and Gilmour is much more skilled than Led Zeppelin and Page...

Bah, Iommi? Wtf :/

You haven't checked out his stuff enough then mate(no rhyme intended)

Oh i have, but still
Ive linstend a great deal to sabbath anyway..

guitar world always has the best lists.

Their 100 best guitar albums list was phenomenal.

I need to pick up that issue

Clapton not even in the top 5 whats that about? And Gilmour is much better then Page let alone Iommi.

Well all I can say is at least it's better than the Rolling Stone list (but then again, so is everything).

God, don't remind me of that piece of trash.

Meh.

Clapton is indeed one of the best still playing, but I've never seen or heard him do anything that sent chills down my spine and/or tears down my cheeks (like Gilmour, Hendrix, or Page).

Yeah, that's not saying much.

no SRV on that list??? wtf?

that's starnge from these guys from GW

It sure is starnge from those guys

i'm waiting for that number to arrive here...

fulg, is there anything else read-worth in issue. and don't tell me that it's all about f**king nirvana or slipknot
