I loved most of the guitarists of the 80's, but I'm not sure about all of you, but EVH IMO was kind of a onr trick pony.
EVERY VH song sounds the same to me, I have never thought he was good.
And alot of shredders do know how to read music, but I don't know how you can say EVH is better because he didn't.
I can do all of the harder guitar techniques but I'm still learning to read music.
Because basically, if a person doesn't know how to read music IMO I don't know how they can call themselves musicians.
And I have no idea how a true guitarist can actually like Eminem.
Please don't get me wrong, I mean no offence to anyone, these are just my views
