790964 2009-07-12 00:07:00 This may be your last chance to see Django Reinhardt, the Copyright Ghouls (Lobster Films) have pulled most, nearly all video clips of the master.

He lost the use of two fingers on his left hand in a caravan fire when a young man.

That was the one I was trying to think of.

Classical Spanish Guitar

So two votes for him then.

790966 2009-07-12 01:15:00 If you're thinking of classical guitarists, the Australian John Williams would be regarded by many as the greatest, especially in the Spanish style. Greg (193)

790968 2009-07-12 02:37:00 Yes, what is the definition of greatest ?
The fastest ? the most inventive ? the most varied in style ? the one wit the best technique ? the one who made the best lead breaks ?
You could also say that great means long lasting reputation by his fans.
On that basis Jimmy Page is certainly up there.
Jimmy Hendrix was a good guitarist, who created a new style, but you cannot say he was great because he could not handle his fame. (sadly)
