With what is perhaps only the third "greatest... of all time" list of the year so far, Rolling Stone has revealed exactly who, in its opinion, are the 100 greatest axe wielders of all time.
Just to clarify, that's not axe wielders as in psychopathic Canadian lumberjacks, but as in guitar players of the rock'n'roll variety. And Jimi Hendrix sits atop the pile.
Surprisingly enough for an American magazine, the top 10 is fair jam-packed with Yanks - the exceptions being Eric Clapton (at No4), Jimmy Page and Keith Richards (nine and 10 respectively). The only artist in the top 20 who could be said to have begun his recording career in the past 15 years is Jack White (17).
Please peruse the list by clicking on the link above, then use the space below to debate its accuracies and iniquities.
