Although Stevie Ray Vaughan is far more popular today, B.B. King brought far more inovation to blues than almost any other guitarist.  His techinque is unique, but often copied by other players.  Listen to some of the old stuff before you make up your mind.

The lyrics, the chord progression, and the mode used by the lead guitarist. Blues have a different sound. I am surprised that you cannot tell the differnece.

The Ozzman Cometh, the Ozzman Winneth!  \n\n\nSorry Jimi... Ozzy Osbourne is more successful and is bigger in the rock world, probably cuz he didnt die in his 20's (well, thats argueable i guess... he might have died in his 20's but the drugs have kept his body shaking and jerking enough to fool us)

Withiut a doubt, Paul McCartney.  On many songs he is playing a type of harmony.  He's incredible.  Listen to "Something," the middle eight part.  Listen to "Silly Love Songs." Before him, the bass was basically  da dum  da dum.  It lacked in imagination.  He is a master of the bass guitar.

Page is amazing. He didnt copy blues masters. He took what they did and put his own spin on it. He made it his own. For someone to say he copied them is like saying all new metal bands copied off of sabbath. its not true. He loved that music and made it his own. Hendrix was just famous for being an adequete guitarist who was a druggie. No comparisson

Bruce is the better singer; but album wise I love the "Killers" lp.\nSong:  Run To The Hills (Studio)/The Trooper (Live)\n\nAlso if you ever get a chance check out "The Iron Maidens" an all female tribute band to Iron Maiden.

I think he uses a Schecter Omen 6 (at least in the videos for "So Cold" and "Sooner or Later"). It matches my own guitar (including paint of electric blue) but for recordings and live shows I'm not too sure. Wikipedia didn't have much info.
