Thanks Arioch. I knew it sounded really familiar. I haven't watched any of the Halloween movies in a while so I wasn't sure. I wonder if he was inspired by the Halloween theme when he came up with the song, though. I guess only he knows.
I'm curious. What do yall to define a guitar God as?
Arioch, the test of time requirement you stated seems misplaced IMO. What is the test of time? How long does one have to last to reach that level? The artists you stated all started in their the 60s or early 70s. It has been over 30 years since each of those guitarist first recorded an album.
And with your comment about not changing rock, Tom Pettey has been quoted saying Cobain/Nirvana was the most influential music since the Beatles. Assuming that is true (you probably don't agree, obviously), would that make Cobain a great guitarist? How about Lennon/Harrison from the Beatles?
I'm sure you can see where I am leading this questioning to. I probably gave up my sinister plan by using examples before you defined what a guitar God is in your opinion. :D
