    RIP Fast Eddie Clark of Motorhead

    By far one of metal's most underrated guitar legends. Guy could pull bluesy metal riffs out of his ass. Also, what he could do with just a couple pentatonic scales is indescribably clever.

    I'm picturing Jon Lord using his B3 like a flak cannon while violently shaking it like he usually did and wearing a Rambo bandana and a blood soaked face.
