Greatest British Musician?

OK they were all part of great million selling bands - but who was the best at their craft?

Im going for Moon - always was and always will be the best drummer of all time in my opinion.
revolutionised rock drumming
RIP Keith 'Mental' Moon

Re: Greatest British Musician?

ok the name of the thread is greatest BRITISH musician:
-Edge - irish!!
-Slash - yank!!
-Phil Collins - Martian!!!

lol i just dont think Phil Collins even compares to anyone else on that list, cant stand the guy. Plus he is now an official US citizen, claiming that he will only come back to the land of hope and glory if Tories get back in power...

...no one wants that; help society, Vote New Labour

Re: Greatest British Musician?

Pete Townsend and his theatricals on the guitar. No one comes close well may be Hendrix.

Re: Greatest British Musician?

Actually, the Edge is English as are his whole family. Whilst he has lived in Ireland on and off for years he is still a British citizen, not Irish.

Re: Greatest British Musician?

Eric Clapton is an excellent musician. Though on balance I have to say that I think Brian May was/is a superb guitarist. There are few about that could match him.
