Hardly Any Young Aspiring Guitarist Will Live Their Life By Without Acknowledging The Work Of This Man. He Is Non Other Then A Guitarist Called Slash .Most People Would Have Heard Of Him From A Hard Rock Band From The 80s Named Guns And Roses . He Is The One Who Defined The Band's Image With His Thick Black Long Hair Covering His Face, His High Hat and A Cigarette In His Mouth. Armed With A Gibson LesPaul , He Single Handly Brought Back Tone, Touch And Taste In Rock Guitar Playing. With Solos That Had A Touch Of Blues ,He Gave Rock Guitar Playing A Breather From The Usual "Eddie Van Halen" Style . Listening To His Guitar Solos From Songs Like "Sweet Child O Mine" Or "November Rain" ,You'll Discover That Its So Melodic..This Shows His Musical Talent to Write Solos..Not Only To Play Them Technically..But To Play Them From The Heart.

Jimmy Page
Still One Of The Most Identifiable Guitarists In Rock History, Page's Les Paul And Marshall Amplifiers Left His Blues Roots In The Dust And Created Hard Rock Like No Other. Mantra-Like Riffs And Deft, Wrenching Solos Made His Famous Rock Band Of The 1970s Led Zeppelin Timeless. Page's Influences Ranged From English Folk To Middle-Eastern To Jazz, And He Regurgitated That Material In Fascinating Ways. But Then, Page's True Genius Lay In His Ability To Extend Beyond Mere Guitar Heroics, And To Write Poignant, Evocative Songs Like "Stairway To Heaven" , "Rock N Roll" , "Black Dog"..Just To Name A Few. All These Songs Still Stand Today And Are Still being Discovered And Appreciated By Younger Generations To Come. (Picture is the one above)
