Had to put my 2 cents in.
Tom Scholz? Guitarist? Only a guitarist?
First and foremost an engineer.
Masters degree in electronic engineering from MIT?
(There are parts of MIT that look like Air Force barracks because they are Air Force barracks)
One thing to master the instrument you play.
Whole other thing to redesign it.
And build it.
AND play it.
The rockman?

There's a nice acoustic version floating around out there, too.
It shows just how good Otiel Burbridge is on bass

Have several Bill Frisell albums. I like em. Different for sure, but I like em.
E. Reed at Filmore is one of my favorites for sure. I just like that one riff sort of at the beginning where the guys yells out after Duane plays it. I also like the Enlighten Rouges album which i think is one of Betts's best work. Check out Sea Level if you haven't already Don. Great stuff with Chuck Levell, keyboards doing most of the heavy lifting and some Allman band members. I have all their albums but not much on cd. Great stuff.

I think most of the intro on Liz is #^^^^&ie playing, not Duane  But I'll have to listen to it again to be sure. Duane hits the stratosphere at the end, after Gregg's organ solo.

#^^^^&ie Betts.. def. underated,
and,, he knew how to stand in Duane's shadow...
heard him says once, when asked why he didn't try to shine more...
in the early years, before Duane passed...
He said.. "Think about it.. What is the name of the band??"

Toy Caldwell was underrated too

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

#^^^^&ie was good, but he was nowhere near as good as Duane. Trying to outshine Duane would have been impossible anyway. He still had his moments on the Fillmore East album--he has some of the longer solos on stuff like You Don't Love Me and Whipping Post
Duane himself, though, had a very high opinion of Betts' playing. He'd tell anyone who'd listen that "Brother #^^^^&ie's as good as anyone"

Listened to the Fillmore East live version this AM on the commute.
It's #^^^^&ie on the into. Then #^^^^&ie and Duane carry the melody for three choruses. Sometimes in unison, sometimes with Duane playing harmony and/or ad lib riffs around Betts' lead. Then, it's #^^^^&ie's solo, followed by Gregg's organ solo, Duane's solo, a short drum break, and the final chorus with both guitarists again carrying the melody.

Both Duane and #^^^^&ie were amazing... I guess #^^^^&ie the "under-rated" one then... Duanes' a legend!
I mentioned that Clapton's "Just One Night" was a "top- 3" Live Guitar performance album of all time-- turns out I recalled three even better:
1) Jimi Hendrix Exp. "Live w/ Band of Gypsies"
2) Allmans "Live at the Fillmore East"
3) Jeff Beck "Live w/ the Jan Hammer Group"
None of these three are underated... except maybe as live performers? (IF all you've ever heard/ seen live of Jimi's was "The Star Spangled Banner" at Woodstock... "Band of Gypsies" 100+ times better musically!

Regardless of who writes the top 100 or whatever genre it is...it is saying the 100 best guitarists of all time....to say Kurt Cobain is even on that list...or at the number he is...is a HUGE stretch...it isn't saying the most influential person of all time....skill wise Kurts songs are a joke...they are good and rocked for that time, but anybody who picks up a guitar can play most of their songs, his talent was in his lyrics. Thats like saying Bradley from Sublime should be on there...aint gonna cut it(favorite band is sublime but still) gotta call them as you see them. And to not have Slash on it is CRAZY....he should be in top 20 for sure. Especially from Rolling Stone, sure you will have discrepencies about who picks who, but the fact is 1/4 of those names on that first list aren't great guitarists.....where is Prince? That man can play any instrument you put in front of him. The fact that Joan Jett is on there and Jerry Garcia, Guitarist from Skynyrd, and Randy Rhodes isn't on there is heart breaking....
