Best guitarists in punk

[northernhord]

I love Steve Diggle but why no Marco Peroni? Top man and Adam & the Ants musical genius.

I like Peroni, a distinctive sound he had, I thought it stuck out on the Antz earlier stuff

He never went away.

He walks amongst us but casts no shadow.

jesus.

punk was never about BAD musicianship.

it was about not privileging technique. Playing punk doesn't mean you have to be shit

You said it so I didn;t need to call in favours.

Ooh - that's gotta smart!

Nah, fair enough.

I haven't had my first dose of prescription opiates for the day yet, so I'm a bit intolerant of sneery purism.

But that's interesting...

But that's interesting...

Only to my pain receptors.

His playing on the version of "Beat My Guest" that the Ants used as the b-side to "Stand and Deliver" was amazing.

Like some supernatural beastie.
