    Wondering no one mentioned Steve Lukather yet. It is the guitarrist of Toto. Eddie van Halen was once asked "What is it like to be the greatst guitarist on Earth?" and he said "Go ask Steve Lukather"

    4. Eric Clapton (legend in rock who branched out)

    Who do you have that's better????
    Knoffler is amazing and I put him top ten all time
    Not saying Clapton is not an all timer, but in my opinion (and others) think he's overrated.
