These lists are mostly meant to get clicks or eyeballs or views or plays however they are presented. I agree with Notes and I am sure many others commenting here, there can never be a definitive list of "best" when it comes to art. It is in the eyes and ears of the beholder. Plenty of good discussion here though. I can listen to Django, Martin Taylor, Joe Pass, Tommy Mottola, Chet Atkins, Tommy Emmanuel for hours on end and always be amazed and entertained. While certainly not a big jazz guy, I do like a lot of jazz players!
