As I said, not in order. Great players who have passed on or retired are
omitted, but I still listen to them.
Let's hear from others. I was truly astonished that Jimmy wasn't on the
list. He does it all. Great fire and chops, and, fortunately, musical
sense to say something. I've heard others with great chops that bore you
after one set, but not Jimmy.
My 2 cents for tonight.
I would like to see:
Jim Hall (the guitar players' guitar player)
Kenny Burrell
Mick Goodrick
Alan Holdsworth
Andy
