Alright. Well, couple that with the fact that Fahey released albums for about 40 years and never dropped in his consistency, even when doing electric guitar-only albums. He did avant-garde stuff, noise stuff, straightforward folky stuff, blues, and even experimented with some industrial at the end there. Not to mention some of his releases, like Mill Pond EP, sounded like Stars of the Lid before Stars of the Lid was even around.
Just sayin'.
Anyway, focusing solely on talent and not influence or anything else, I'd say Lenny Breau was the best guitarist I've ever heard.
