Geniuses:

Bob Dylan - The Greatest songwriter ever

Axl Rose

Thelonius Monk

Miles Davis

Neil Young

Robert Johnson

Warren Zevon

John Lennon

Elton John & Bernie Taupin - If you don't believe me go buy "Madman Across The Water"

Larry Campbell - If you don't know who he is, do some research! He is amazing

And many more, but I have limited time

Border line Geniuses:

Paul McCartney- could be genius if his ego wasn't in the way

Eminem - I hate him, but the dude is the best rap I have ever heard

The Grateful Dead - real good for some hippies

Not Geniuses:

Slash - even though I love him

Motley Crue

Poison

Elvis - Did he ever write a song?

Kurt Cobain - being dirty and pissed doesn't make you a genius

Justin Timberlake

Creed

Lynyrd Skynyrd - take your rebel flag and shove it up your A S S!

Santana - he's been playing same licks for 40 years

Matchbox 20

Jim Morrison - decent lyrics + so-so melodies = Not a Genius

I agree with most of the above posts, but I's like to include:

- Ludwig von Beethoven

- Mozart

- Bach

- Handel

- etc, etc...

Powerful stuff when you pay attention to it. Classical, Baroque... Their roots show up in EVERYTHING.

dude Satrianit taught Vai WAAYYYYYY back when Vai was still at school...

Vai is now technically superior to Satch, but Satch can rip out the meaner tune.

Joe Satriani taught Steve Vai?  I didn't know that.

I too would put Vai slightly ahead of Satriani on guitar skills, but I think it's more personal taste. I think they both rock though.  :)
