I haven't heard anything past Pull , but Pull was great.

I almost voted for Oz but felt that Demartini was a “hair” better. I did give props to him back in my post on page 1 though.

I think Oz and Mikey are really good as a team. They work together better than most guitar duos.

He was actually the player that got me interested in guitar solos. It was 1988, I was in junior high and “hair metal” ruled MTV. His playing on the first Winger album is smooth and effortless.

I saw Reb live during the time he was playing in Dokken and he was phenomenal.

This list proves there was was more talent in these bands, then they get credit for now.

As for Winger, that band could play RINGS around just about any other band in the era or after. Supremely badass musicians.

I went with George Lynch who was a favorite of mine growing up, great list. Vitto is the most underrated, he played with class and has a great tone, I admit thou when White Lion were at the height of their popularity, I did not pay attention to them, let alone his playing.

Warren DeMartini is bad ass, still a favorite.

You are correct sir! No one does dual harmonies like those guys. It’s the reason I Love Stryper so much.

I wonder if first playing together in high school helps their chemistry. Can you imagine having those two in your high school?

I would say it does. They’ve been together so long they’re like brothers.
It would’ve been cool to see the formation of that team.
