Everyone remembers that one amazing riff, that 12-minute solo, the live show that revolutionized the way you thought about guitar-playing. But trying to get everyone to agree on only 100 of the best musicians in the field is a challenge.
Rolling Stone assembled a group of top-notch guitarists and experts in the field to come up with our 100 Greatest Guitarists list. Compiling &ldquo;greatest&rdquo; lists always induces discussion, and this time we asked guitar legends to comment on why their peers, colleagues and idols should be considered some of the best ever. Featuring Keith Richards on Chuck Berry, Carlos Santana on Jerry   Garcia, Tom Petty on George Harrison and much, much more.
