inspiration for this subject came as i watched claptons peformance of old love
from hyde park dvd.

while solo was good i couldn't avoid noticing how bland and shy his rhythm guitar playing was.
so my first take goes on eric clapton

yngwie malmsteen while he can shread milion notes per second his rhythm guitar is definetly not his best side.
as examply i will mention his acoustic rhythm guitar on g3 dvd from denver

so what are your examples?
