MikkinNotts Top 100 Guitarists of All Time (285* d) RE: Top 100 Guitarists of All Time 16 Mar 07


Sadley "GUEST,ib48" your post should be in the past tense "check out isaac guillory,he was incredible" As very sadly Isaac died on the last day of 2000.
I had the great pleasure of seeing him play not to long before he passed away. I went to see John Renbourn & Isaac played solo and with John too. I had not heard of him before and I remember being absolutely amazed by his fantastic playing (he had a great voice too)
I have found this on "Wikipedia"

"Isaac Guillory passed away in 2000. His legacy is immeasurable; the music that he could cause to come forth from a guitar with such apparent grace, pleasure and ease - The man who could visualise an unlimited warmth and love for life and take us to that very special place..."

I read about Isaac's sad death in the pages of "Guitar Techniques". In an article written by Eric Roche's, when he used to write an acoustic column for the magazine.
Eric & I exchanged emails at the time writing about our sadness at such a great loss.
How ironic was it to be that Eric to is now no longer with us.

Two fantastic players who will always be at the top of my list.
