Blackmore x 100
 
Love Zep and Purple, and Page is a great player, but Blackmore had such amazing style and ability to play flawlessly, and not just shredding a million iles an hour in Space Truckin', he's able to do so much with less, like in Mistreated. Dude is awesome.

Blackmore without a doubt..Best guitarist ever..Beats Page on electric by far..Amazing live performances,fast but still emotional..
Pretty close on acoutic until you listen to Blackmore's Night,then you get the whole picture..He is a God..

I voted for Blackmore as well, but I'm not sure I did the right thing... Confused
In any case, they are both HUGE names in rock history, and that matters the most...

You are most welcome!

Thank you. :)

Voted for Ritchie. Page has borrowed too many things and hasn't really impressed for many years now.

Blackmore for sure. Page is great, but he's a little too sloppy for my tastes.

Blackmore. Page is not getting on the nails of what Blackmore is doing. Far superior musician. But both guitarists have great riffs.

Even though I've already voted, Page - more versatile - for instance, his acoustic work I prefer to Blackmore's. I also think Page wrote more memorable stuff whereas Blackmore's technique is better.

Haven't heard much from Blackmore, but Page is a Rock 'n' Roll God, so Page for me.

For me it's Blackmore by a long shot.

Pagey.  Besides playing and writing he also was responsible for some creative studio recording techniques in the early LZ days.  Sure, he was at times a pretty sloppy lead player, but I think he was more well rounded than Blackmore.

Jimbo. He may have plagiarized a little, but ... he can really communicate with me on the electric guitar.
