Keith Richards???!!!, even in the top 100 would be pushing it. Great songwriter, but guitarist?? But, these are also the people who like Britney for more than just her body

Funny, I had the exact same response initially with regard to Keith Richards, whose most amazing quality is actually his continuing existence.

I feel that RS\'s list is a joke, so I have decided to put a list together of what real music fans feel. Feel free to give your input.

This reminds me of a list publised many years ago,and the fact that John frusciante is only 18 on the list leaves me cold.He may not be a technical wiz but his heart and soul goes into what he plays......he just gets better and better!!!!!
