I'll be posting some humorous critiques from time to time. In the meantime you're welcome to provide your own examples of the best and worst. Please elaborate.
The rankings are provided by Guitar magazine.
NUMBER 100
Michael Jackson
"Black Or White"
Shooting for another rock cross over coup along the lines of Eddie Van Halen's "Beat It Solo", Wacko Jacko placed a call to Slash, the hottest guitarist of the moment. Lightning failed to strike twice , however, and Eddie no doubt lost little sleep over Slash's plodding contributions.
I know that Ted Nugent's Wango Tango riff got him in the top ten. I happen to like Wango Tango.
Ahhh...my first vic...I mean customer...
I agree..it puzzled me too...not that bad, surely.
I'm a music lover...so I'll just set here and observe.
By the way, what happened to your avatar?
When the last cute trick or treater had left I rushed to my computer and rubbed out my Halloween Bunny.
My avatar is a sign of mourning for I dreamed that George won the election

Click on "Why vote?" then "Next" then on the guy in the hat.
you bet...glad you took your wheels to the shop...
Nuge says VOTE BUSH. Kerry is the real nightmare.
Saw it on TV yesterday and was really impressed with the Nuge.
Come on now muzzle , did you miss Kerry commiting goose genocide? He's appealing to you gun wacko's...don't you get it?
He may be "appealing" but he isn't very.... I'm not gonna hijack your thread. What other riffs have we got?
I'm a big fan of Zeppelin, but I think the solo from 'Heartbreaker' is one of the sloppiest I've ever heard. Call me a deserter, but heck, it's true. It really sucks.
Darn...I bet you were tempted...OK
NUMBER 99
THE REPLACEMENTS
HOOTENANY
GUITARISTS: TOMMY MARS, TOMMY STINSON
Okay, this was supposed to suck in the first place-all four'Mats traded instruments and attempted a blues jam to achieve the desired effect-but this apalling orgy of drunken cacophony is still a total chore to listen to, even if you're already in on the joke.
Ummm, yeah Cav...I go both ways with it; having tried to get it down....It's incredibly difficult and I respect Page for trading perfection for raw emotion. Not many 'slingers have the cojones to do that.
