Please tell me you're kidding.....

[I Suffer]

I wonder who would be said to have the fastest hands in guitar playing today? Pantera's guitarist is pretty fast, i think i saw in a mag once that he was said to be one of the fastest. But theres so many.

Not even close. The last measurement of speed was recorded by the Guiness Book of World Records and went to Marcus Paus.

They don't do that anymore because it's ever changing.

There are tons of speed freaks out there these days.

Hehe, i knew someone would comment on that. Yep i was being sarcastic. Marcus pause is very fast. Would like to have seen him play because its hard just to imagine him playing that fast when you are just listning to an mp3

[indianaracer]

1. The Kingston Trio
2. The Cowsills (Hair / The Flower Girl ....remember those hopin' tunes from 1968 ? )

3. The Monkees....nobody could pick like Mike Nesmith. He was the teenie bopper answer to Jimmy Hendricks !

4. Dino, Desi & Billy...."Hollywood Kids Garage Band"
Dean Martin, Jr., Desi Arnez & friend Billy (who later was organist for Beach Boys)

5. The Hondells..."Hit song was "Little Honda" from '62.
Takes me back to when I dated my "best girl" on my Honda Trail 90.

6. Brian Hyland Combo....(saw him in person in summer of 1964. "Itzie Bitsie Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini"...was "high" on that song all summer !

7. Frank Sinatra, Jr....Frank, Sr's boy had a semi big hit with "Everybody's Twistin'". I have the 45 ! Sadly, he was later kidnapped, but was released...THANK GOODNESS !!!!

8. Pat Boone..."Love Letters In The Sand" Don't remember this great love tune, but Mommy & Dad used to talk about it and I became a Pat Boone fan.

9. Peter, Paul & Mary...."Smooth sounds" of these legends gets me "high on life" !!!!!

10. John Denver.....was there anyone better ? I DON'T THINK SO !!!! So hard to go on with out John ......but we must.

I'm sure someone, somewhere is faster. Just remember, someone is always better/faster/more skilled/talented/fill whatever word you'd like here/ so, I'm sure there is, he/she is just waiting to be discovered.

When I heard him play back in August, he was so mindbogglingly fast that it was simply incomprehensible.

And he told me he hadn't practiced for several years, he had just picked up the guitar for the occasion. Awesome guitarist, whether he's fastest or not. Too bad most people have only heard his playing when he was with Mr. Cucumber.

[Death55]

Yngtchie Blacksteen, it would be cool if you could try and get hold of some more of marcus paus. If you do please tell me !

[aiwass]

NO ORDER:

Adagio
Dream Theater
Symphony X
Dimmu Borgir
Opeth
Arcturus
Tool
Nevermore
Pain of Salvation
Meshuggah

Sure thing, no problem.

[Cryptic Excretions]

In not too much of a particular order

1. Opeth
2. Cannibal Corpse
3. Cryptopsy
4. Samael
5. Goratory
6. In Flames
7. Dream Theater
8. Beethoven
9. Led Zeppelin
10. Pink Floyd

As far as the fastest guitarist goes, I'd say that cryptopsy's guitarists are pretty damn fast, though if we're bringing some classical guitarists into the fray I'd say that most are already beat.

[jleraan]

At the moment, I think it is:

Iron Maiden
Motorhead
Aerosmith
AC/DC
Judas Priest
Deep Purple
Rainbow
Led Zeppelin
Jimi Hendrix Experience
Manowar

...And those who almost made it:

- Gamma Ray
- Black Sabbath
- Megadeth
- Metallica

[sme331]

No particular order here

AC/DC
KISS
Pink Floyd
SRV
Molly Hatchet
Black Crowes
Eve 6
Collective Soul

You get the idea

[Azrael]

this is probably the first time on this board that anyone apart from myself was mentioning GammaRay. haha - i realy dug that band, but tha last few releases are pretty weak in my opinnion. but albums like "heading for tomorrow" and "Land of the free" remain german metal history!.

[Death55]

I've heard of gammaray. I dont think i have heard any of there stuff though.

[Azrael]

gammaray is the band from Helloweens ex-guitarrist/vocalist Kai Hansen, who left Helloween after the Keeper of the Seven keys Pt. 2 Album. Definitely worth a listen. Kai was the founder of helloween back in 1979

[Edited by Azrael on 02-10-2004 at 07:11 AM]

In no particular order...........

Corrosion of Conformity

My musical diet changes as much as Christina Aguilera changes her hairstyles. A couple of weeks ago I was caning 'Is there love in space' to death and going through a general Satch phase. A week later I'd gone global-dance. This week I had to replace my copy of 'Angel Dust' so at the moment I'm going through another Faith No More phase. They're great for letting off steam when you're feeling a bit hacked off.
