Looked up via Google, and I gather this is the list (from programme first broadcast in March 2001):

Ritchie Blackmore
Eric Clapton
The Edge
Jimi Hendrix
Johnny Marr
Hank Marvin
Brian May
Jimmy Page
Carlos Santana
Pete Townsend

I doubt if we missed much of great value.

John,

Who was on it? I've obviously missed it but would like to satisfy my morbid curiosity.

You read the Express and expect accuracy? And no, the schedules weren't rearranged to accomodate Spike --- his last demonstration of his genius in the art of comic timing was to die three days before this already-scheduled tribute programme.

That said I did see the programme when it was on before and was not that impressed especially since there wasn't even a mention of Richard Thompson.

There does appear to be a tribute to Spike Milligan on earlier in the evening so maybe all the schedules have changed to accomodate that.
