K.K. Downing and Glenn Tipton
I was hesitant at first on this pick because Priest have not put out a good album in some time. However they did do a lot of great albums year ago. The guitar style and approach of this pair varied from the 70's to the 80's, but they still managed a direct sound that is still influencing metal bands today.
***I'll have numbers 9 and 8 out on Friday.
They may have sucked for almost 20 years now, but there is no denying what they did before that. They're not flashy, but their influence can be heard in just about any good metal band that came behind them.
ReplyDeleteLove these guys, especially their work on the 70's Priest tapes.
