Hes only a 'legend' for the same reason kirk Cobane is. Like i said lots of hammer ons and pull offs and strange effects don't make him a guitar legend. And i hear lots of randy roads in his guitar work. In fact i'm sure some of the last solo was taken from randy. And not to meantion Eddie van halen. The guy was not original. A great guitarist but not a legend by a long shot.
Kurt Cobain is one of the greatest songwriters to ever live! Are you saying Dime is a legend because he died? We you born in 2004 or something? I have a feeling this is going to turn into a flamewar! Hahaha. :roll:
Throwing out the words "hammer-ons" and "pull-offs" is stupid, that's extremely basic and every guitarist does it. No one sounded like Dimebag, not Rhoads, not Halen, no one. He was completely unique, he could shred like no other and he was a killer fucking songwriter. The dude has been a legend since the mid-90s!! To come out now and shit on his technique is retarded. The man is a fucking legend. You can't do what he did in those clips and 99% of other guitarists out there can't do it either. The man was flawless!
