uhhh stevie ray vaughn? holy shit man have you seen austin city limits dvd? there is one song on there that is non-human (ill have to check which one)

or JOE SATRIANI ARGGGHGHGHGHGHGHG

i dont think jimi hendrix is that good - just inspired and spiritual... srv plays jimis songs better heh. (they are exact opposites - srv is all typical blues licks and stuff, but in terms of playing the guitar he is better)
