As I wrote in an earlier post, it ain't what it used to be. No question about that. I probably buy about 3 issues a year, at an airport newsstand waiting for a flight.

Enquirer of the music world? That's a pretty low blow, and would indicate to me-and I have no idea of your age-but if you considered it to be that going back say, 20 or more years ago-then you obviously weren't ever reading it.

I don't know why I feel compelled to defend the magazine-it wasn't like I ever wrote for it or anything like that-and I don't have the thing in front of me like I did a few weeks back-but I recall Joan Jett might have made it because she was a pretty good rock rhythm player-and more importantly because of her influence-being a girl-and inspiring others of the female persuasion to take up rock guitar. Obviously in a one-on-one Mike Campbell could have smoked her. There could be a thread on 100 great ROCK guitarists that DIDN'T make the list, and we could probably fill it up pretty quickly.

I think it's the same reason they put Robert Randolph in there-getting pedal steel out to the masses in a rock context.

Of course they knew it would cause disagreement-I supplied the quote stating just that from the begining of the article earlier in the thread.
