Wonder if it's a good "age clock".....I hit #72 and then didn't recognize the rest of the "songs"....I *did* recognize
some of the #73-#100 musicians or bands.

Wow -after watching that I dont think I even have the right to say I own an electric guitar -

Pretty nice bit of playing!

Don't go there Tad. His legato was a bit stiff so the two Santana riffs could have been better.
But I'd still give him a standing ovation for the complete effort.

It took me two tries to make it all the way to 100. I like how he makes a '58 Strat sound just like my Squier.

I thought it was an incredible statement, that a 58 Strat could handle the entire history of rock and roll with ease. Apart from that fuzz pedal on Satisfaction, I was impressed with how he dove in and really tried to sell each and every lick properly.

Also, Santana sucks and you guys are snobs.

No Stairway or Louie Louie , I'm OK with that. His point of one song leading /morphing into another is so much part of the fun in noodling on stringed instruments be it guitar ,ukulele, mandolin etc ...
