@TheRijir Yes, the number of incredible leads he's composed and played, as well as so many great riffs. I don't remember how Jimmy Page said it but he said something to the effect that Ritchie was a better lead guitarist than he was.

@joelombrdo that's because rolling stones magazine hate ritchie.in 70' and 80' ritchie wasn't on the their lists at all!!!???they said:ritchie have bad attitude,he is bad person!!!that is reason why is he so low on they lists.fucking rollinig stone magazine!!!i hate it.ritchie is the best guitarist ever,number 1,and i'm glad that you love ritchie,cheers

@TheRijir Yeah, but Gillan isn't a young man anymore so you can't expect his voice to be as it once was. Ritchie is the best, as a matter of fact I'm still shocked that the Rolling Stones listed him only as high as number 50 on its list of the top rock guitarists of all time.

But 1984 was when Ritchie was happy because he wanted Gillan back - in fact, believe he spearheaded the reunion because he liked to "run the show" anyway lol. Think he's just moody, if not worse. But he's the best, most creative guitar player - loved listening to him all the years of DP. Still miss his style.

Blackmore may have an ego it's true... but there are not many guitarists in history that almost deserve to be egotistic.. he is one who is.

I was at this very gig.
It was so totally awesome to see Ritchie playing in the flesh.
As a young guitar player back then, it was like a wish come true...

I saw them, same tour Maple Leaf Gardens Toronto 1984, I had tears in my eyes
-
Again, during some live concerts, the band is so loud you can't hear Gillan well! Too bad.
