There are many top guitar players who I like and respect for their skill but whose musical output, on their own records and others, pretty much sucks in my book. Shame. Which players do you like but wouldn't want to buy albums they feature in. I include

John Petrucci - fine player, esp with G3, but I cant get into Dream Theater. Not one bit.

Dave Gilmour - the man's got beautiful tone and phrasing but Floyd were always too damn depressing for me.

Johnny Marr - fine stylist but The Smiths were generally quite dreary, mainly because of Morrissey's voice and lyrics

Jeff Beck - no doubt he's a top axeman but i like little of his stuff.

Brian May - top man on the faster numbers but the anthemic/cod opera stuff drives me bananas.
