Great shout!
And what about latter-day George Harrison when he played slide. He had a vocal quality all of his own that really stood out.
Robbie McIntosh.
Whichever bloke played lead in Squeeze.
Francis Rossi...I'd recognise his style and phrasing anywhere. Massively under rated guitarist. Ditto Rick Parfett (rip) again, very distinctive and hugely under rated rhythm guitarist ...he was like a human metronome.
Bill Nelson of Bebop Deluxe, very distinctive style, just listen to 'Sunburst Finish'. One of his guitars even had a theramin built into it!
Andy Powell of Wishbone Ash, his tone and phrasing are unmistakable. If you've never heard any Ash, check out Argus with tracks like Blowin' Free and The King Will Come!
The Reverand Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, again that glorious thick grinding tone and those texas rock blues riffs played in an almost laconic manner are just unmistakable.
Gary Moore...did no one mention Gary? If not that's unbelievable. His beautiful playing style and that tone are just to die for.
Jan Ackerman from Focus. He uses some less usual scales to give some unique phrasing, with great touch
And finally...
Mr Rory Gallagher (rip).unbelievably distinctive style and tone from his Strat with virtually all the paint rubbed off and slammed through a cranked AC30.
I'd recognise that chorus and flanger anywhere.
Jonny Marr
Johnny Greenwood
John McGeogh
Robert Smith
James Hetfield
Yep, i’m a sucker for a good blues player
Hammet’s style was largely based on Mustaine’s, if you listen to the No Life ‘Til Leather demos. Mustaine definitely has his own thing, the aggressive chromatics, spidery riffs, etc. My Last Words, Killing Is My Business, Poison Was The Cure, etc. Stunning and unmistakably him.
