Brian May
Brian May is Queen’s (we all know who they are) guitarist and one of the band’s founding members. May has noted for his soaring guitar solos as well as his ability to combine rock & roll and classical music styles. His unusual voice is instantly recognizable, regardless of the band he is with at the time. After Freddie Mercury’s death, Queen as a band was placed on pause for almost a decade. Brian May, on the other hand, has resurfaced since then, bringing Queen back to the forefront of rock.

Stevie Ray Vaughan
In the 1980s, Vaughan was a key figure in the blues resurgence. Vaughan’s lightning-fast fingerpicking was recalled by David Bowie, who chose him to play guitar on his new album Lets Dance in the mid-’80s. The Stray Cats and Eric Clapton were among the opening bands for Vaughn, who was an instant hit. At the age of 35, he perished in a helicopter crash in 1990. He is still regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
