pick 5? might as well pick your 5 favorite orgas...er...never mind
need catagories: rock, jazz, classical and then list 25 of each

Adrian Belew
Jeff Beck
Steve Hacket
David Gilmour
Duane Allman
Derek Trucks
Brian May
Les Paul
Steve Carlton

stay tuned for bassists
Levin

Percy Jones
Velvet Jones...er, not
Sting...yes, Sting
Jeff Berlin
Stanley Clarke
Jaco
and, so on...
and those are just in my finite world of listening
of which I have left off more than I've listed
like whoever played the bass on "Something" it couldn't have been Paul, could it?
I guess I'm party poopin'
or, trying to make a point
Rolling Stone couldn't get it right with 100
and they got paid for it!
