Voted for Malcolm in another thread, this time KK Downing of Priest gets the nod.

If Brian May is the rhythm guitarist then who is the lead guitarist in Queen? Same with Joey Ramone. :think:

Brian May. But I'd hardly call him a rythm guitarist.

Johnny Ramone like to play rhythm better than lead. Tommy, Daniel Rey or some uncredited bloke would play lead on the albums. You got me their Cosmic with Brian May (darn Wikipedia). A mod can change Brian May to Cat Stevens (Yusuf Islam, Yusuf). Sorry for that screw up.

I voted for John Lennon. I had just checked K.K. Downing on the list & then knew that I just couldn't vote for K.K. Downing as John Lennon was just such a more overall creative, emotional & influential artist in music. It still brings tears to peoples eyes just hearing about his death. He was just a regular kinda guy that could've/should've been able to play his music for years to come, yet his death took a great person & great music away just like that, as it does with all great artists. Even I've shed a few tears over the years in memory of him.:omg: He had to get my vote. Period!
