SRV or eddie van halen were never part of songs like one, wowy, BD, wtshnn. even page only has one truly great song (stairway) which i think is overrated compared to my fav zep stuff. Clapton has tear is heaven which really... isn't that great (don't say layla either though), he won sympathy grammys. Jimi was god, but his songs weren't good enough to be in the upper echelon of rock history. Only three guitarists; keith, edge and george, have been a part of multiple great great songs. SRV and EVH are nowhere to be found in the greatest songs of all time.
