I'd post more but what's the point? No one cares about true talent, they'll just stick too well known artists from the 80's...it's 2009 people, wake the fuck up!
Your definition of "true talent" seems to be "can play very fast and cram more notes into a minute than anyone else".Quote:

Not at all, these are just examples albeit to you and others it may seem I just chose fast shredders, fast != good and I know that. These are examples to check out the artists themselves and I just took whatever came up on youtube when I typed in there name w/o looking. Prime example, follow the link:Quote:

And just b/c they play fast most of the time doesn't mean they don't put feeling behind it, Oziel Zinho is a prime example of that, he's fast and has a ton of emotion behind his playing w/ excellent phrasing and dynamics.
Only reason I was miffed is b/c everyone keeps posting "slash, hendrix, etc etc", yes they're good but for gods sake move on, there are way better players out there than those guys. Yes they were pioneers but its time to start recognizing better players and giving credit where its due.
Mattias IA Eklundh, no doubt.
I have no idea which videos are good, but here's some:

for me it's got to be hendrix. he could do insane things with a guitar, still blows my mind
hendrix!
Matt "Guitar" Murphy
Jimmy Hendrix & Santana
Why, our very own JP, of course.
Jimi Hendrix.
Jimmy Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Kirk Hammett, James Hatfield, Jo Satriani, Steve Vai bla bla bla..
not easy but Jimmy Page probably
Hendrix or SRV. For this generation I'd give john mayer a slight edge over frusciante, mayer's live stuff is absolutely incredible, amazing blues solos.
It's hard to say who because it's hard to compare.. In my opinion there are many best players :D
Rusty Cooley
Angus Young is my favorite (best performer anyways)
ok my top to guys are C.Santana and J Hendrix
Hendrix is the best,
Slash in second place
this one..

I think there is a confusion about technicality and music. Jimi fused those the best.Quote:
