101 Greatest Moments in Guitar History

Guitar Player magazine staff list their 101 Greatest Moments in Guitar History.

From the birth of the steel string guitar in 1885 to the White Stripes in 2001 and all points in between.

The technical innovations - the Frying Pan, Telecaster, Les Paul, Stratocaster, humbucking pickup, Floyd Rose trem, 100 watt Marshall amp , first pedals.

The great guitar album releases - Robert Johnson’s “King Of The Delta Blues Singers”, B.B. King’s “Live At The Regal”, John Mayall’s Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix “Are You Experienced?” and the selft titled debut from Van Halen with that track “Eruption”.

It was a win…but that’s all…

…from the “midget” and the shoeless.

Yup the win over Azerbaijan amounted to nothing more than that and the talk of Beckham regaining his form was way over the mark.

He still came inside far too often. With the Azerbaijan flat back 9, Rooney, Owen, Lampard, Cole & Gerrard all in the middle of the park the last thing needed was Beckham and the talk of his crossing being great, yeah the one that got past the 1st defender but how many was there out of the large number he tried. Certainly wasn’t Star man.

Another thing that never seems to be questioned is the fact the fullbacks always come back inside on their weaker foot, in the case of A. Cole his right is only there for standing on.

Still Carlos Alberto’s rant about the “midget” Owen was funny :lol:

Owen was right though

But he’d be perfectly within his rights to criticise my performance - I’ve certainly had better games.

He should have had five.
