Eric Clapton is God. -Or at least that’s what the graffiti scrawled once declared on London houses. Eric Clapton is the first artist to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame three times.

David Gilmour

Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour is for sure legendary. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest guitarists of all time. Pink Floyd took their transformative sound from their roots as a blues/folk band and turned it into an acid rock genre that no other band could match. As new fans of the band emerge, the albums Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall continue to sell millions of copies each year.
