A few more underrated guitarists:
1. Sterling Morrison gets very little credit for the generation of musicians he inspired with the Velvet Underground.
2. Joey Santiago's work with the Pixies has been copied over and over again... the 'unison bend'.
3. Andy Gill - Gang of Four -- the syncopated guitar that sounds like breaking glass -- amazing. Inspired Big Black and many, many others.
4. Dr. Know...the Bad Brains remain the tightest, most powerful live act I've ever seen without sacrificing musicality. Dr. Know and Greg Ginn architected the bridge between metal and hardcore.
5. Bob Mould. Great with Husker Du, Great Solo (listen to "Workbook"), and great with Sugar (one of my personal faves ever).
