I'm glad "Comfortably Numb" is number one. I remember Gilmour was placed obscenely low on RS's 100 Greatest Guitarists list (80-something, if I recall correctly).

Hard to argue with the twin solos in 'Comfortably Numb'. They're certainly Dave's best, but I think I'd put Page's 'Since I've Been Lovin' You' at the top of the heap.

Once again, Rush, King Crimson and Yes get screwed! (though I do like most of those songs)

I git six of them in my MP3 player right now.
(Okay, 5, because it's Stevie Ray Vaughn's Voodoo Child, can you blame me really?)
