Prince

He does a little singing, but Prince also plays a mean lead guitar. The solo on "Let's Go Crazy" is a frequently cited example of his frenetic style, but covers of "Just My Imagination" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" prove he can also play under control.

That Rock Hall performance helped so much with Prince's reputation in the music world & general public.

true innovation is what he does with his guitar

I know. Eddie VH was noticeably absent as well. But it's nice to see Prince in a top 10, and not a top 100 for a change.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I know! & where the heck is Angus Young
ah well they got Hendrix, Slash, Chuck Berry, and Prince in there.. i'm happy

but Brian deffiantly comes before Yngwie & Johnny Ramone in my opinion
