Ranked: Best Guitarists of All-Time

Billy Gibbons

Even before growing his beard, Billy Gibbons was a powerful player that opened for the likes of Jimi Hendrix. Gibbons’ sound has transformed as he grew. Beginning with the psychedelic garage band, his sound developed from off beat to synthlined glide. No matter what era of music he was playing, his sound was melodically concise and electrifying.

“Jesus Left Chicago” has an offbeat shuffle sound that is interesting to listen to in comparison to his hit of the 80s “Legs” and “Sharp Dressed Man.”
