Guitar Gods showcases the 25 players who made the greatest impact on rock and roll's long and winding history. All the players profiled in this book threw fans for a loop; their advancements in music left the genre in a different place than when they arrived.
Bob Gulla is a professional writer and co-author of The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Rock History (2005) and Icons of R&B and Soul (2007).
Having worked for guitar magazines for a couple decades now, Gulla
has chosen to profile not guitar players with the best technical
dexterity, songwriting prowess or sonic innovation, but those who
have made the biggest impact on rock and roll. Each one, he says,
left the field different than he (all guys, of course) found it.
Most of the names are familiar, among then Chuck Berry, Eric
Clapton, George Harrison, Jimi Hendrix, Carlos Santana, and Frank
Zappa.
