Buy Now	Everybody Loves You (more) »rank: 8266 by: Kaki King	Buy Now	Super Colossal (more) »rank: 29710 by: Joe Satriani : :One of the most innovative voices in contemporary American music, guitarist Joe Satriani celebrates two decades as a recording artist by releasing yet another consistently strong and refreshing platter of soulful goodness. Like his former student and sometime sparring partner Steve Vai, Satriani shows his virtuosity rests not only in his command over his instrument but also in his command of composition. 'It's So Good,' 'One Robot's Dream,' and the title cut are constructed with a master's sense of harmony, melody, and rhythm. Satch still shreds without compromise, as he demonstrates on 'Bedshift Riders,' but he also reminds us that he can compose ...
Buy Now	In the Midst of Beauty (more) »rank: 21916 by: Michael Schenker :Description:Michael Schenker is truly a legend. From helping form the Scorpions to his stint with UFO, his guitar prowess has been electrifying from the beginning. This brand new recording perfectly captures the MSG aesthetic and mystique, which makes sense as 4/5t	Buy Now	BBC Sessions (more) »rank: 12970 by: The Jimi Hendrix Experience : :Some of Jimi Hendrix's live radio broadcasts for the BBC were released by Rykodisc in 1988 on Radio One, but The BBC Sessions, remastered and fleshed out into a two-disc completist's dream, is perhaps the best document of how the Experience sounded live in 1967. From blues stomps such as Muddy Waters's 'Catfish Blues' to surly R&B vamps such as the three takes of Curtis Knight's 'Driving South,' Hendrix explores his roots with hardscrabble passion. Meanwhile, he pushes the psychedelic-pop spectrum with surprisingly rich versions of studio-tweaked numbers like 'The Burning of the Midnight Lamp.' There's plenty of slop--a stumbling jam with Stevie ...

Buy Now	Live at the Fillmore East (more) »rank: 26310 by: Jimi Hendrix : :Though it was made largely to help disentangle Hendrix from a thorny contractual dispute, 1970's live Band of Gypsys LP--six tracks pulled from four concerts recorded over New Year's Eve and Day in 1969-70--stands as one of Hendrix's most remarkable guitar statements, and an integral part of his recorded legacy. This two-CD set accounts for a large portion of the remainder of those concerts, and though uneven and ragged in spots, it offers some minor revelations. Highlights include a stunning jam in a revamped 'Stone Free,' 'Auld Lang Syne' as only Hendrix could have played it, a playful 'Who Knows' with an improvised ...
Buy Now	Sound Proof (more) »rank: 7298 by: Greg Howe : :Greg Howe's highly technical, yet very melodic, guitar style has established him as one of the most innovative guitar instrumentalists of our time and a true guitarist s guitarist. On Sound Proof , Greg has assembled a hot band that has gelled together to create a freshly unified sound. This record is a veritable smorgasbord of hot chops as each player never fails to impress on these awesome jazz/rock/fusion compositions.	Buy Now	Until We Felt Red (more) »rank: 11437 by: Kaki King :Album Description:Kaki King has never been one for convention. Her third album (following 2003's 'Everybody Loves You' on Velour and 2004's 'Legs To Make Us Longer' on Epic) is certainly no exception. Over the last few years, she's enjoyed well-earned status as the zeit-girl of instrumental acoustic guitar. Here she bests herself and defies expectation again, ditching her acoustic for an electric, lap steel, and perhaps the most unexpected instrument of all: her own voice; disarmingly winsome and sweet for a woman with so much attitude. The haunting melodies are sadder, the lush orchestrations are fuller, and the sharp edges can cut. :It ...
Buy Now	Shut Up 'N Play Yer Guitar (more) »rank: 8568 by: Frank Zappa : :Guitar solos and nothing but. Meticulously culled and assembled by Zappa from live recordings made between 1979 and 1980, this three part set features some of the most dynamic and musical guitar work recorded anywhere by anyone. From the rhythmically dazzling 'five-five-FIVE' to the unique lyricism of the three title tracks, Zappa proves beyond doubt that he belongs among the most elite of rock's guitar virtuosos. The remarkable interplay between Zappa and Vinnie Colaiuta--some consider this to be the drummer's best work--provides this album with some of its most memorable moments. --Andrew Boscardin	Buy Now	Irish Tour (more) »rank: 9122 by: Rory Gallagher :Album Description:Digitally remastered reissue of the late bluesy Irish rockguitarist's 1974 concert album, first released on Polydor.Contains all 10 of the original tracks.
