I love kirk, he is an excellent player. He sticks to simpler techniques but I enjoy listening to his guitar solo's - especially when he plays fade to black live.

I'm also gointg to throw in James Hetfield. Ok, a rhythm guitarist - but look at songs like The Day That Never Comes, Nothing Else Matters, Harvester Of Sorrow, One, Cyanide.....he IS Mr Riff
