The Good the Bad and the
Ugly. |
| Glenn Hughes |
Very well-maintained site.
Nice new look to it too. Run by one of Glenn's biggest
fans who gets frequent news updates straight
from the source. Discography, sound clips, forum. |
| Tony Iommi |
Excellent site. Was down for
a long time, but is back now. Interviews, lessons, detailed
equipment rundown. |
| John
Sykes |
Not a lot there yet, but
what's there is good |
| Ritchie Blackmore |
Fairly lame. Pretty much
JUST a Blackmore's Night site. |
| Gary Moore |
Good stuff here, but it
isn't updated very often. |
| Wolf Hoffmann |
Wolf's a full-time photographer
now and wolfhoffmann.com now reflects that. The Accept
stuff is in this historical archive (not updated since
1999). |
| John Norum |
Under reconstruction. There's
some stuff, but kind of hard to get around now. |
| Joe
Satriani |
I don't like the layout of
this site. |
| Dave
Meniketti |
Another one of my favorite
players. Mostly a sales site, but now incudes a forum
where Meniketti is a moderator and occasionally posts. |
| Doug Aldrich |
Still under construction, but
some good stuff here. Killer player -- check him out. |
| Tracy
G |
Website for ex-Dio, ex-WWIII,
and current Driven guitarist. |

| Zakk
Wylde |

site should have, and more. Revised regularly. |
| Tribe
of Gypsies (Roy Z). |
Minimal content on Roy. |
| Tommy Bolin |
The Bolin Archives people are
a an efficient, well-oiled machine. Amazing how a dead
guy can be a whole cottage industry. |

Good site on a great player
who hasn't done nearly enough in the last 20 years. |
| Mr Scary - The George Lynch Home
page |
Recently redone. Looks much
better to me. |

Excellent site. |

one below better. |

| UFO
& MSG site |
Good info, but I don't much
care for the site design. |
| Steve Lukather |
Nice site, however, the webmaster
ignored my request Luke's contact info when I wanted an
interview, then he reproduced my interview without permission.
|

links page |
There are so many Zep related
