You forgot Duane Allman on #1. That riff wouldn't exist if he hadn't been there to record that song with them. The original studio version with his amazing slide guitar is still the best version to this day.

The most amazing thing about this dude is not that he perfectly hits literally every note, but that he manages to directly imitate the style of each player, which is REALLY hard to do. Extremely impressive

I shed a wee Scottish tear today. I am a couple of weeks away from my 65th birthday, and the penny finally dropped that in my wildest dreams, I will never ever be able to play guitar like this, BUT, the tear was just as much one of joy because a guy who can play guitar like that took the the time to share it with the likes of me, and in so doing, he has made me want to keep on trying, keep on learning, keep on wanting to be that good even though I know I never will be. God bless you.
