I was about to throw a spanner in the works and say "Orange," however, I've reconsidered and seen the error of my ways - it soooooooo blue!!!
Seriously though, lalimacefolle had it right - what's better in art? Eddie probably caused a bigger stir when he was first around, but he's also had a few more years than Randy...
I'm not really choosing which is better, guitargod420 made a very interesting point, but you could argue that would Randy have been able to of [i]written[i] the thing Eddie played? More to the point - do we really care?! It all inspired a generation and then some, surely that's the point?...
Personally, I'd go with Randy, but I can't honestly say he was better as such...(God, I wish I knew what I meant!!!)
Your thoughts?...
