All along the Watchtower was amazing but he was not the best Geet IMHO.
Red House was a great blues song...
Sloppy, perhaps, but that's all part of his vibe. I go back and forth on this, but I think SRV was a better player. But the reason Jimi is almost always listed #1 is because he completely revolutionized the instrument. Any rock player that came after him, they're all pretty much influenced by him. So I think that's why he probably deserves the greatest tag. Although as we all know, ranking guitar players is 100% subjective.
