My plebeian friends consider David Gilmour to be the GOAT, and they legitimately think he's the greatest guitarist of all time. Mark Knopfler isn't the all time GOAT, but he is closer to the Rushmore of guitarist than big Dave will ever be.
Please settle this /mu/, gills or the knop?
Kevin Shields
The GOAT is literally dead.
Steve Albini
I'm not talking about who's your greatest ever, but comparing these two, whom is better?

Gilmour EASILY

This is dumb.
Gilmour is a fantastic etheral blues guitarist, his use of echo is amazing. Knopfler is much more technical, he probably the only guitarist in the world that can play the stuff Dire Straits played.
Shit is whack.

Gilmour might be a better composer in some regards.
Knopfler is a much better interpret and is much more capable in technical terms.
This comparison doesn't make much sense.
>>65429921
Knopfler is objectively in pretty much every way
