Neil Young - Guitarist

We all know Neil for his outstanding songwriting skills and some may even recognize his talents with a guitar but is he underrated? in 2015 Rolling Stone ranked him as number 17 of 100 greatest guitarists of all time. Can anyone pull more raw emotion out of a guitar than Neil?

Doesn't the quote from Jimi, confirm the last two posts?

 The notion that he’s on a list of top guitar players, kind of took me aback.

I do feel,  however one links the notion of a song in one's head and then somehow interprets that into an emotional connection to others ..is Neil's unique gift.

IMO, one's stance on any subject has nothing to do with how well they are able to perform at their chosen profession.

I'd say Jeff Beck off the top of my head.
