I can't believe no one here has mentioned the Boss. Bruce Springsteen's been putting out great stuff since '73 and can definitely hold his own on guitar. You also can't overlook one of the E Street Band's guitarists, Nils Lofgren. If you have a chance just listen to his Youngstown solo from the Live in NYC album.

I've also got to put The Who and Lynyrd Skynyrd up there too.
