THE Guns 'N' Roses pop rock anthem Sweet Child O' Mine has the greatest guitar riff of all time according to music fans.

The famous track came top of a poll of 100 Greatest Riffs Ever voted for by readers of Total Guitar magazine.
Jimi Hendrix, Ozzy Osbourne and Nirvana hits all make it into the top 20.

But tracks by the Rolling Stones and the Sex Pistols failed to make it into the 20 favourites.

Grunge rockers Nirvana once made Guns N' Roses look outdated, but their track Smells Like Teen Spirit is now in second place.

Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love was third, followed by Deep Purple's Smoke On The Water.

But lead guitarist Slash and singer Axl Rose will not be celebrating -- the pair have not spoken to each other since a fallout in the mid-1990s.
