He's one of the best, if not the best and hardly recognized in the media.

I say his solo on Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 is the greatest classical rock riff of all-time. It's in his bends and phrasing, although not technically the best.

Hands down, my vote goes to Rik Emmett, from Triumph.
1 John 1–3._ 1Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God.
