I had that album 2000 years ago, I think the guitarist was John Ellis, who I think replaced Hugh Cornwell in "The Stranglers"
I bought the 'Pure Mania' on special at the Hillbrow Record Library in 77 or 78

I'm really loving Richie Kotzen's blues/soul work lately.

Well, my fav guitarist would be the famous Al Ratcliffe, guess a no-brainer there, closely followed by ReneS and Norio.
Did anyone of the guys running this site gets my request for a raise in status from Newbie to Global Admin? I'd like to be able to impress my friends when I logs in here.
TIA
BTW, strangely no one mentioned Clark Kent who can shred faster than the speed of sound.
Lastly, has anybuddy listened to Jacob Zuma's guitar work on his hit single, "Bring me my machine heads"? So he'd be up there too.

My favourite player is Buckethead, followed by.... nobody.... ?

Michael Hedges, Tommy Emmanuel, Kaki King, Don Ross, Andy Mckee, Stefano Barone, Kotaro Oshio, Andy Mckee, Antoine Dufour etc. You get the idea. ?

Nice I like your taste... You need to add a few there
Go check out Michael Gulezian, Pierre Bensusan, Doyle Dykes, and the unstopabble Monte Mongomery...
Monte is only second best... behind the master Tommy Emmanuel... IMO of course ?
Squonk
I agree with you Brent
What I dig the most about Monte is his attacking style, I suppose Tommy is the same.
Pierre Bensusan is good stuff DADGAD and all that
Another wild player although not acoustic is Tuck Andress, also very good, But I think Old Tommy is up there, his timing is incredible.

Then they can't all be favorites surely? Sure you admire them, respect them, like what they do... but that's not the same as being a "favorite".

Some that I like more than others and am digging au moment:
Mick Taylor - live Stones in the early 70's, damn he played so hot.
Brian Setzer - Virtuoso rockabilly. Jazzed up, but with full on rock 'n roll feel.
Dick Dale - No one's ever done it better. A lot of people think he just tremolo picks non-stop. He doesn't. He does these incredibly funky little middle-eastern style stops and starts within tremolo picked riffs. Seems like a total A-hole, but he is, and will forever be, the king of the surf guitar.
Bukka White - The crazy bangin' on the box, the singing little slide counter-points.
Mississippi Fred MacDowel: Very simple slide guitar, but what a sound. It just sounds deeply hurt.
