The reason they are the best is because they are amzing at expressing themselves through their guitars, you can feel the emotions they are feeling. This is obviously augmented by the amount of drugs they took. Jimi Hendrix used to cut a slit in his forhead, soak his headband in heroin, and wear it when performing to give him a constant high. Other guitar players might sound good, but they are in no way as talented as these two. Other guitarists play well known riffs, and they're too mechanic. Think of it this way, it takes skill to draw a picture and make it look good, but it doesn't take nearly as much skill to trace that picture and make it look good. It's perfectly fine to like a different guitarist better though, because they might sound good to you, but in terms of who is the most talented, Hendrix and SRV are at the top.
SRV used to put a lot of cocaine in his whiskey, so he could stay high when on stage without making a scene off of it
And I never knew about hendrix using herion, thought he only used LSD.
