Top Ten Guitarists Who Left Us Too Soon

by Alan Bryson
Ranking musicians is a hopelessly flawed endeavor. It's about as meaningful as having a list of the top ten best tasting foods. Taste is highly individualized, influenced by mood, familiarity, and the way in which multiple variables interact. One person's escargot is someone else's slice of Chicago style pizza. I just took a break and searched ...

Oteil Burbridge: Profile of a Folk Jazz Player
