  1. 1

    Jimi Hendrix

    Jimi Hendrix The 5 Greatest
    Bob Dylan missed the biggest break of his career when he wasn't killed in that motorcycle accident.
    Jimi preserved his musical legacy when he got himself killed, but he also missed out on "The Sopranos".
  2. 2

    Stevie Ray Vaughn

    Stevie Ray Vaughn The 5 Greatest
    Let's face facts. Right after that picture was taken of Vaughn, his brother, Jimmy, Eric Clapton and Robert Cray, he was the only one to get on the helicopter.
  3. 3

    Michael Schenker

    Michael Schenker The 5 Greatest
    This former Scorpions and UFO axe-master has had a long, reasonably successful, career despite himself.

    He has stormed out of the middle of more shows and tours than George Bush has said, "It's Hard".

    More crazy, than stupid, Schenker still amazes with his fretboard frenetecism, as much as his unpredictability as a citizen.
  4. 4

    Jeff Beck

    Jeff Beck The 5 Greatest
    Jeff Beck is Nigel Tufnel, except that he can really play. When he is on, there is no one better. Does he think he's fooling anybody with that wig? If he had bothered to take a composing credit on even a third of his solo work, he could spring for a hair transplant like Elton Johns'.


  5. 5

    Alex Lifeson

    Alex Lifeson The 5 Greatest
    Mr. Aleksandar Živojinović can wail. He plays like Andy Summers on crack. He ain't too bright, though. His most famous quote: "Duh..I'm a guitar". He couldn't stand not being the center of attention at a New Years Eve party, and managed to get himself and his son arrested.

    Brutal, funny, and (mostly? not sure about Hendrix, remember he was on acid like 1/3 of the time) dead on. these guys seem pretty dim bulbs, tho who cares when they can play like that.
