Hard bop, blues-rock and prog all had an iconic guitarist with surname Green. Which one is your favorite?

All three have their own merits, and are great guitarists, but I'll go with Peter.

Got to go with my main man, Grant Green. Like him, I am more of a single line player and he shows me what can be done with that. All three are terrific.

There's also Mick Green from (Johnny Kidd and the) Pirates, but that would have made my decision even harder. I voted for Peter, but I love a 3 (4) of them.

Greenie! One of Britain's greatest blues guitarists at his peak. Terrific voice too.
