But Prince isn't really known as a guitarist to the general public... Most people think he died in the 80s , the rest think he's a symbol-named homosexual who does play anything and hasn't released anything since TMBGIW.

Hang on if he didn't play a record breaking 21 Nights in the UK in 2007 then i would take that comment, but really the BBC just played Purple Rain tracks and a few other ...come on! confused

But people making lists like this do know. It's why he's on it. He's not the greatest guitarist to ever live, or even alive today.

Looking at some of the people who came in lower than Prince I think 8th is a very respectable position for the little fella. smile
Some people are like Slinkies...

They're good for nothing but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.
