Ramblin' Rose
I'm getting kind of sick of the typical "OMFG, JImi Hendrix is teh b3st guitarist! lolol!" or the same with Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, EVH, or whoever. Yes, these people are wonderful guitarist but there are others who get little to no recognition. For example:
Wayne Kramer and Fred Smith - The MC5's dueling guitar assault is brought down by Wayne Kramer and Fred "Sonic" Smith. With Smith on rhythm and Kramer on lead (except for a rare version of "Kick Out the Jams' that has them dueling on a solo) they fueled the bluesey rhythm behind the band. On the video "Metal Roots," the band does an improved solo at the beginning of Kick Out the Jams. Kramer and Smith go eye for eye, matching each others leads. It proves how great of a guitar tandem they were.
Omar Rodriguez Lopez - Former At The Drive-In guitarist and current Mars Volta axe-slinger, Lopez is truly one of today's greatest and a legend in the making. Listen to "L'Via L'Viaquez." The guitar solo at the beginning is amazing to say the least.
