Good luck, and happy voting! (Voting closes at ***10 PM EST*** tomorrow....I'm going to start closing the polls an hour earlier, because I've got to get my beauty rest from now on. ...No comments from the peanut gallery. *koff*)

Steve Howe: 1

Because he's an excellent acoustic guitarist, and I think that goes well with Ann's voice.

[MronoC]

Brian May: 1
Steve Howe: 1

for some reason, I think his style would go really well with Ann's Vocals

[TheCrimsonSaint]

Do I have to pick between Dave Murray and Adrian Smith since they do the duel-lead thing?

Yes.

[TheCrimsonSaint]

Yes.

You bastard!! (Shakes fist)


Damn. Chick vocalist... hafta say Dave Murray on account of his guitar tone is the best ever. It sounds like a freakin' horn. You can pick him out of a group of a hundred players.

Brian May: 1
Steve Howe: 1
Dave Murray: 1
Johnny Marr: 1

I think it's about time an alternative musician won one of these threads.

Current:

Brian May: 1
Steve Howe: 1
Dave Murray: 1
Johnny Marr: 1

Actually, that's not a bad call on Murray. Ann would've made one helluva metal chick back in the day....I could see a Maiden or Priest guitarist backing her up.

Not to be a ****, but really. Murray is in an entirely different league than Downing and Tipton. So is Adrian, while I'm at it.

Sorry, I really feel like the Downing/Tipton duo gets too much credit for pioneering dual-lead even though they weren't very good at it. At least, not as good as Davey/Adrian.
