Jimi Hendrix was named the best guitarist ever

The Time Magazine released a list compiled by music critic Josh Tyrangiel, which contains the best guitar players ever. Among the candidates to the crown were well known personas, such as: Jimmy Page, B B King, Yngwie Malmsteen or Slash. But Hendrix beat them all with his fusion of blues, rock and progressive guitar riffs that gave many young people a kickstart to become great guitarists themselves.

Also Slash who took the second position was mentioned as a very precise player. Keith Richards who was placed as 4th best guitar player has gained a remarkably good position with his incredibly popular riffs that he wrote more than anyone else in the world.

We are surprised that there is no sign of great modern players such as Joe Satriani or John Petrucci (Dream Theater), who also deserve a piece of this important cake and have done remarkable thing with their axes. Satriani alone reinvented modern blues-rock fusion and taught many well known guitarists like: Steve Vai or Kirk Hammet.

The full list of the greatest guitarist ever goes like this:

01. Jimi Hendrix
02. Slash
03. B.B. King
04. Keith Richards
05. Eric Clapton
06. Jimmy Page
07. Chuck Berry
08. Les Paul
09. Yngwie Malmsteen
10. Prince
