What other ground breaking rock guitarist from the U.S. had more effect worldwide?
I think we may have a winner.
Historically speaking the United States figured prominently in the development of Blues, Jazz, Bluegrass, Folk, and Rock-n-Roll. But all the historical figures seem to be individuals (James Brown, Elvis, Robert Johnson, Bill Monroe, Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis).
When it comes to which band was the "biggest" or "best" or most "Most famous" I'd have to say it was Van Halen in the rock category. Bruce was just as big, but I don't consider him a "band".
