"Favorite" might not be the right word. I am not including Ronnie James Dio in this poll. Which affected you most [and I know you guys will name a bunch of people I have never heard of as add-ons, so go for it].

For me it is the legendary japanese drummer Higuchi. He was the backbeat to some of my favorite bands and his beats will always be with me.

Voted for the amazing Jon Lord, still influencing any number of bands that I really dig now.

Gary Moore was awesome, sadly missed Sad

Sadly and inexplicably not on this list is Jeff Hanneman!

Special mention goes to the amazing Selim Lemouchi

Denis "Piggy" D'Amour. One of my favorite guitar players of all time. A truly amazing player.

Matt LaPorte (Jon Oliva's Pain) was the first one I thought of. Can't see him listed, but I'll still stick with him. Dio was second.

Out of the guys listed, it's got to be Jon Lord.

Of those with whom I'm familiar, none affected me much because I wasn't a big fan. I voted for Kevin Dubrow because I remember being quite pissed off when I heard of his death thinking, "A guy his age still doing cocaine??? Really???" I've never done drugs and don't understand the culture so I didn't sympathize with the problems of addiction. That was wrong of me, I know.

I know that she liked women and stuff, but I still don't think that Kelly Johnson was a 'guy'.

Staying on your thread, but complaining about your choices is also an option. Razz

Of those, Dimebag. However, above all of the ones lost in the last decade I go with the late Mike Baker (Shadow Gallery). Such an amazing voice taken way too early.

He's not really a metal guy but Adam Yauch was a bit of a hero of mine.

Of the list - Jon Lord

But in reality I would pick Ronnie James Dio and Jeff Hanneman if they were options.
