Alex Leifson (RUSH) is really underrated here, IMO.

I agree, but I think That's gotta be due to Geddy Lee's status in the band as the multi-instrumental grand poobah, .
When I listen to Lifeson's guitar playing, I can only think, " Why have I never thought to deem him the greatest rock guitarist of all time?"

I'd put his playing alongside Brian MAy from the standpoint of its originality.

c'mon man....C.C.Deville from Poison had all the awesome riffs....Fallen Angel,Talk Dirty To Me (ripped off She's Tight from Cheap Trick),Ride The Wind, I Won't Forget You.

Lifeson has got nothin on those songs...I mean what is Limelight,Between The Wheels,Big Money,The Pass,and La Villa Strangiato got on them?!? LOL

Noone has mentioned Andy Summers of The Police (please Sting stop doing duets with the likes of Mary K. Blige and get back with Andy and Stewart)
