| Poll question: Best 80's era New Wave Guitarist |
|
And New Wave is a fairly broad term here....
Note it would include Adrian Belew but not Robert Fripp....

| 1. Will Sergeant out of that poll, but hozabout Stuart Adamson of Big Country? |
|
Damned if he didn't make that guitar sound amazingly like a fiddle (my gramps and dad were both mean Irish fiddle players, so this I know!).

| 2. Johnny Marr's guitar in "Electronic" |
|
Electronic (Marr, Bernard "New Order" Sumner, and a few tracks with the Pet Shop Boys) was pretty sweet. Their first record anyway ...

| 7. Belew is hardly New Wave... |

...but I'd probably pick him over the others.
