Don´t agree with this statement. To be a good player, in my opinion, you have to have a good technique and you also have to be a good musician.

Concerning Hendrix I´m sure that he would earn a leading place in such a ranking(i mean hendrix has the greatest influence on other players and he´s also the "inventor" of modern rock guitar), although, how already mentioned, these listings are kind of senseless.
