i can't belive i forgot, or no one added, tony iommi. the man practically invented a guitar style and a musical form. not only that he's lightning fast while being technicall proficient and accurate.

Joe Satriani... saw him twice live. Kicks ass ! Fast or slow, heavy or smooth. Great guitar teacher. Gave lessons to Kirk Hammett of Metallica and Charlie Hunter. As a shredder, I enjoy Yngwie Malmsteen. Super-fast on classical guitar. The stuff with Rising Force is quite decent for metal music with vocal.

conell is an excellent singer, and a great showman, songwriter, and lyricist, but when you see thayall live, wow!

yes schuldiner was very good; very technical. as death went on, the albums became more and more technical, as was control denied(i think that's what they were called) chuck also surrounded himself with some of the best players meatl has ever seen in the later years, like andy la roque and steve digiorgio.
