I'm glad to see that people are finally getting away
from the urge to declare ONE guitarist *THE GREATEST*.
Now, how about mentions for few quitarists that would
never be mentioned there, but have still produced a lot
of good music.  You know, the guitarists that you never
knew until you heard this really great piece of music
and wanted to know "who did that!?"

I think that Ollie Halsell deserves a mention for his
work with PATTO and KEVIN AYERS.

I'm also surprised that nobody has mentioned Joe Pass
(especially his work with Oscar Peterson) or Wes
Montgomery.

None of them are "guitar heroes" but I find that I listen
to their stuff a lot more often than I listen to ********
(names withheld to prevent flaming).

By the way [Marcel], if you have a discography for Utawanga
or Toejam Jawallaby I'd appreciate a copy (I don't recall
ever seeing them in the WCPR record library).
