Aqualung from Jethro Tull, Heartbreaker, Black Dog, Since Ive Been Lovin You from Led Zeppelin, and More Than A Feeling from Boston are missing as well!

No All Along The Watchtower by Jimi Hendrix?? And I thought this was a list of the greatest songs ever, and AATW didnt even make top 100, mman, I must be in the wrong list!

I forgot to mention Metallica. Fade to Black, One, and The Four Horsemen should be up there.

Man this list aint right... How do you make a 100 Greatest Guitar Song list and not include Deep Purple... Looks like RS hasn't ever heard Smoke On The Water, which, in my opinion, is the most popular guitar riff ever! Also Highway Star should have been included. Another thing that bothers me is the lack of more Van Halen songs. Sure, Eruption is sick, but Hot For Teacher, Mean Street, and Im The One are way much better. Also, how could they not include Cliffs Of Dover by Eric Johnson... One of the best intrumental songs EVER! What bothers me the most is the Pink Floyd subject... How do you include Money and not include Hey You, Have A Cigar, Wish You Were Here, and Comfortably Numb... Money is one of my favorite songs ever, but its more a greatest ROCK song, not guitar song! Also Green Grass And High Tides by The Outlaws is missing, great southern rock performance! And finally, Mr. Crowley by Ozzy Osbourne, give Randy Rhoads a little more credit for his great work in so little time.

My 2 cents: There is a difference between Greatest Guitar Songs and Most Important. "You Really Got Me" at #4? Unquestionably important. I was playing bands back then, and this just blew us away. But #4 Greatest Song? Not. Meanwhile, "Born Under a Bad Sign" only 62? Was there ever a riff blatantly stolen more frequently? A lot of your list I don't think belongs here, but I'll give you your opinions. However, I gotta ask you to go back and listen to the great Paul Revere singles, especially "Just Like Me." No one had ever layered lead Fender licks like that - absolutely belongs in Top 100. And those radio-blasting chords of "Jumping Jack Flash". And ...


Need I say more about the new Rolling Stone '100 Greatest Guitar Songs' list?
