Hm, tough decision, I'll have to deliberate.

Fripp is by far my favorite electric guitarist. The guy just excels at everything. Riffs, textures, solos, subtle or overblown. I love Joni, but there's no way she's this good. Very very few can compete with Fripp.

Setting Baby's on Fire:

Atmospheric bliss:

And of course King Fucking Crimson:

Is... is this even a fair comparison? Fripp, obviously.

She is, but Fripp is on another level entirely.
