    Peter Green

    Neil Young

    Paul Weller

    Seen all three (albeit a fat old PG that could barely play - kind of wish I didn't see him).

    Honourable mentions...

    Clapton

    Andy Gill

    Charlie Burchill

    Jonny Greenwood

    I should add that the list could change tomorrow. I don't really have all time favourites or heroes. I listen to loads of stuff - to narrow it down to 3 is difficult.

    When I was younger I'd have said Dave Murray, Angus Young and Kirk Hammett.

    Nowadays I'll say Taylor Goldsmith, Neil Casal and Mike Campbell.

    With lil Wayne, the word 'misunderstood' comes to mind ........... As in he misunderstood when someone said "you're the sh*t, man"

    Bugger, I really want to answer this but three isn't enough, I'd have to leave so many people out.

    The only one I can be sure of is Robin Trower.

    No-one mentioned Lord David of Gilmour yet? 

    Actually I'd probably choose Eric Clapton, Peter Green, and Wilko Johnson, with honourable mentions to David Gilmour and Keith Richards.
    I play guitar because I enjoy it rather than because I’m any good at it
