The problem with Rolling Stone is that they can’t stop living in the ancient past. For example, they released a list of the 100 Greatest Guitar (Rock) Songs which suggests that no one has written a decent guitar song in at least 15 years. Somehow, the Allman Brothers Band’s “Statesboro Blues” comes in at number 9. Right, so very old people like these songs. I can deal with that. At least Nirvana comes in at number 10. And this is one of the most recent songs on the list. Sigh. Anyway, I thought I would collect some guitar songs that should have been noticed, if the writers/editors of Rolling Stone could see past their thick glasses.

Really. It only took a few minutes to think of these songs. There’s lots more. The dinosaurs at RS just need to get out of their rocking chairs and visit the present.

Dear Mr Peepers.
Have you ever seen or heard a guitar? Neither have the other douchebags at Rolling Stone. Go play with your synth loser-boy.
