Best Guitarist You Ever Saw in Person

[klarktx]

I had the fortune to be cozy with SRV and Double Trouble in my youth.
Watched them rise.
I was backstage the night SRV met Bowie and got his big break.
Great days and a sorely missed artist.

Frank Zappa was the best I have ever seen.

A name most people don't know is Ty Tabor from King's X. One of the best guitar tones ever.

Steve Vai was amazing, technically speaking.
Saw SRV once when I was young before he became famous. He was amazing in a soulful way.
Eddie VanHalen rocks also......

I remember thinking that Neil Giraldo was way better than I realized when I saw him and wife Pat Benetar opening for somebody I can't remember in Greensboro NC a few years back.
