Actually I think Rabea is better than Rob Chapman and so is Danish Pete
I don't think there is anyone at Andertons who isn't better than Rob Chapman.
Any fans of Danish Pete should check out the recent video with the new Les Pauls. I am surprised he could get off the chair after that...

Robin Trower usually pops up in these threads around now.
Robin Trower, who was lauded as 'The New Hendrix' in the early 70's, regularly appeared in Best Guitarist polls, and is arguably most famous as a guitarist who releases guitar-based albums? Under-rated?Not the most underrated of all time, but certainly underrated in my opinion; Alberto Barrero

He’s released a couple of online albums but seems to spend most of him time as a demo artist for various guitar/amp/pedal manufacturers (which is how I discovered him).

Loved his playing with Zappa, and to a lesser extent his solo albums and his work with Bozzio in Missing Persons. Not quite sure why he joined Duran Duran. Women & money (in that order), I imagine.
Agree with all of that TBH.This is a guitarist thread, but I love Bozzio's playing too, crazy that he's one of the very best out there IMO, yet also only the 2nd best to have played for Zappa IMO.

Turning this on it's head, in the sense of punting a young guitarist who no one's ever heard of, I'm digging Altin Gun, a Dutch band who take Turkish disco & folk songs & rearrange them into psychedelic rock. So far, so niche but this lot are making inroads generally.
They have a British guitarist, Ben Rider who I wouldn't suggest is any great technician but who does have an ear for the right line to a given song & he loves a bit of wah & that's always alright with me.

Nowhere near the anything of all time but, whatever, a decent guitarist is a decent guitarist, right?

Time and Emotion is a superb album, if only to hear what a great voice he's got.
Strange, never heard or seen Robin sing, I think you maybe mean Jim Dewar the bass player who does have a great voice, he was also a member of Stone The Crows with Maggie Bell.audidoody said:
