Where would rock’n’roll be without guitarists, eh? Answer: nowhere – because there’d be no flippin’ rock’n’roll.

This month we take a look at some of the sonic architects without whom the musical landscape would look (and sound) a helluva lot different. Join us in our deep dive celebrating many of the players who don’t always get the love and attention they deserve.

Also in this issue: a digital download album, a downloadable eBook, an official Gary Moore plectrum and a set of stickers (more details below).

The new issue of Classic Rock is on sale now.

The 100 Most Influential Guitar Heroes
We look beyond just the ‘usual supects’ who top polls, and bring you the guitarists who really made a difference, plus some relatively new kids on the six-string block.

It’s great seeing Lindsey get a little love. But these magazines are so hokey — you never know what coverage is being engineered behind the scenes by managers or labels to grease a new album. My hunch is that there isn’t much independent journalism anymore in the rock press, no more Christgaus or Greil Marcuses, probably, just some phony “reappraisals” of guys like Lindsey, whom the authentic critics always valued.

Here's the part about Lindsey. No need to ask Mick about Lindsey's work. It is in fact flaultless.
