Hello everyone and welcome to another in the great series that is Hero Worship. This is where I take one guitarist and lay my worship on this unsuspecting guitar hero, with the help of Total Guitar magazine, of course. And this weeks hero definitely deserves the title of Guitar Hero as he shown us through the 90s and 00s that he is an exceptional guitarist. In 2003 Rolling Stone Magazine placed him as the 18th best guitarist in their 100 greatest guitarists list, and I believe this placing was perfect. Some thought his greatest moment came[...]

Hello everyone and welcome to another Guitar Duel. I apologise for not doing one for a week but I've been busy. Anyway the last Guitar Duel between Paul Weller and Johnny Marr ended with Marr taking 88% of the votes, so thanks for all that voted. Now to this weeks fascinating battle between arguably Ireland's two best guitarist exports. Between this weeks guitarists we look back at 70s blues and technical ability with the guitar. We look at some Bullfrog Blues and some apregio'd delay. So who are these two Irish guitar gods? Well its none[...]

Hello everyone and welcome to another Guitar Duel, a battle of legendary guitarists wits, stamina and skills. These contests provide blood, sweat and tears from our guitar heroes but I'm afraid they have to be done. Well done for everyone who voted on the last guitar duel between Chuck Berry and BB King, it was close at the start but then King started to pull away and he was the winner in the end. Anyway now on to this weeks fascinating encounter between two of the best British guitarists of the 70s and 80s and two guitarists that are still[...]

Hello everyone and welcome to another Hero Worship post. I know it's been a while on the old worship front so I thought you guys deserved a lil Hero Worship. This weeks legendary guitarist is a real corker. Inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990, voted 50th in Rolling Stone Magazines 100 Greatest Guitarists and the godfather of smashing guitars and a windmilling picking arm. He's also wrote several rock opera's from Tommy to one of my favourite films of all time, Quadrophenia. He still tours with his band, The Who even though hes[...]

Hello everyone and welcome to another exciting Guitar Duel, these are proving really popular. Before we get onto this weeks duel lets look at who won last weeks battle between Morello and Cobain. I must admit I did sort of expect the end result in which Morello was the overall winner. It was quite close though. Thanks for voting guys. But now onto this weeks cincilating duel between two of the older greats. For this weeks poll we travel back to the birth of rock n roll in the 50s. With these two guitarists we look back at a girl called Lucille[...]
