I still have a set of Paiste Alpha cymbals that make the most delicious noise

the drums were lost in a very acrimonious divorce ( not even my divorce, it’s a long story)

I bought a set for an ex's nine year old lad (good handful - her not him) - he didn't know what to do, he liked Bruno Mars.

I bashed out 'Incarnated Solvent Abuse' and 'Hands all Over' amateurishly to demonstrate but nowt.

She's probably binned them - she was a serial binner of valuable stuff.

Just get a real set even a junior one - electric ones are toss.

If you have an ear for music you pick it up straightaway.

Stick some oo on and just bash away along.

Yeah I know I can do the rhythm and pick up drum patterns just from listening

Why keep cymbals alone?

Me playing drums has never ended well

I’m dead good. But it’s not the dam-bursting experience for the ladies that it should be.

Good shout, how does a bloke make playing a guitar sound like bagpipes?

A talented fella taken way too soon.

Because they cost me a gazillion pounds of Fat Norm

Similar to when I got my first 1210s and would be banging out Beltram or Bedrock at 1am with a spliff in my mouth - and spitefully would paint myself as a victim if the then missus  (the one with the big ones) came to complain - what was her beef I only started at 3pm (work).

Stupid thread. Like asking which singer sounds best, best rapper, best drummer without context.  

Some days you want Glen Matlock, some days Angus Young.

Also, these are all pop/rock guitarists. Where are the classical? The real players?

As I say, nonsense. Music isn't 4 4 2.

Well you’ll start saying Prince went to Swansea once so he’s Welsh, so yeah 

Slash is from Stoke 

Is that why you left him out? 

He definitely wins "best hat"

George Benson - a fantastic Jazz guitarist

Honestly forgot about him not a guns and roses fan but he can go on the subs bench

John Williams

I said him Spider you bloody cheat.

And best drummers? Pete Sandoval and Dave Lombardo.

Someone will probably say him out of Rush who's brown bread - bollocks.

He couldn't live with the other two - well his ghost couldn't.

Classical guitarists can in the main stick their acoustic where monkeys stick their nuts.

He was overrated - you only like him because Kurt Cobain kissed his bottom and wore a t-shirt of him.

Some of his caterwauling is awful.

I always preferred John Lee Hooker

He was good in 'TJ Hooker' and 'Magnum P.I.'

The Cooder/Vai duel got mentioned in passing so it's only right to give a shout out to those involved in the best (rock) guitar duel of all time, Steve Hunter and Dick Wagner on Oh Jim from Lou Reed Live. Never matched let alone bettered.
