BBC Sessions

CD-Charts > Music > Rock Guitarists
by: The Jimi Hendrix Experience

Release Date June 02, 1998
This is my favorite Hendrix live album for the same reason that Electric Ladyland is my favorite Hendrix studio album: it shows off his range better than any others. I'll grant that's not exactly a fair thing to say, because it's a compilation spanning his entire career, but as it turns out that career was quite a diverse one, so that's okay. This runs the gamut - Hendrix blues ("Catfish Blues", which served for the basis of the "Voodoo Chile" jam; "Hear My Train a Comin'", "Hoochie Coochie Man", "Hey Joe", "Hound Dog", featuring a bunch of real dogs, a manic "Killin' Floor"), funk-rock ("Little Miss Lover"; the instrumental "Driving South"), ear busting acid-rock ("Foxey Lady"; a stripped-down "Burning of the Midnight Lamp"; "Purple Haze"; ...

This is a fantastic album, Great slow songs, Great fast songs, and some songs are very uplifting like "Turn it on". I would recommend this album to Fleetwood Mac fan or non-Fleetwood Mac fan.

Shaman

CD-Charts > Music > Rock Guitarists
by: Santana

Release Date October 22, 2002
This is an excellent DVD audio - the surround sound is just fantastic and the music is just great - a real pleasure to listen to. I have played this DVD audio over and over again since the moment I got it almost a month ago. Recommended! PS - everyone compares it to Supernatural. I have that too on DVD audio but find it a bit more boring than Shaman! Shaman has a wide variety styles that I find very attractive. I am an old Santana fan too - have been listening to his albums for about 25 years now - and I can tell you older albums can be less interesting than Shaman, which, by comparison, I find very fresh and innovative.

Burn to Shine

CD-Charts > Music > Rock Guitarists
by: Ben Harper

Release Date September 21, 1999
I love Ben Harper and this has to be his most creative CD yet. You can find Bens classc acoustic sound to high gain slide guitar to the delta blues and even some jazz. It is one of my favorites now.

24 Nights

CD-Charts > Music > Rock Guitarists
by: Eric Clapton

Release Date October 08, 1991
The premise of Eric Clapton's live double compact disc, `24 Nights,' to quote Derek Taylor's liner notes, was an undertaking "to celebrate his (Clapton's) music at the Royal Albert Hall over 24 nights with first a four-piece band and then a nine-piece and then a batch of blues giants and finally a mighty orchestra..." For any fan of rock, but especially for fans of Eric Clapton, there is lot to like about `24 Nights.'

Recorded live in 1990 and 1991 at about the same time as Clapton's studio release, `Journeyman,' `24 Nights' includes classics such as `Badge,' `White Room,' and `Sunshine of Your Love' recorded with the four-piece band, blues standards `Have You Ever Loved A Woman' and `Hoodoo Man' with the blues band, `Pretending' and `Bad Love' ...

Just One Night

CD-Charts > Music > Rock Guitarists
by: Eric Clapton

Release Date September 10, 1996
I have had this album for for 20 years. I continually come back to it and amazed. For the record, I am a huge Clapton fan. What I love about this album is that it is Clapton in his pure state. Guitar, Amp and occasionally a Wah-Wah pedal. It's a good mix of his blues and country tunes. For me, it is a must have, one I would take to the moon with me. The version of Double Trouble is phenomenal, and one of the best representations of Eric's blues virtuosity.

Rising Force

CD-Charts > Music > Rock Guitarists
by: Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force

Release Date October 25, 1990
Okay, let me begin by saying that I'm not just here to bash Yngwie, I actually bought this CD, and I am here to hopefully save people from wasting their money on this soulless tripe because I was misled by some people on the internet who claimed he was good, and even, in some cases, A FREAKIN' GUITAR GOD! Lemme tell ya, he is faaaaaar from that. He plays the same speedy hammer-ons and pull-offs over and over again.

When I first heard this album, the slow, majestic opening notes of "Black Star" had me entranced, but then he sped up and never slowed down until the closer, aptly titled "Farewell," which sounds just like the slow opening of "Black Star." That's seriously about all I remember. Otherwise, this album just blows by with nothing else memorable ... Read More:

El Rayo-X

CD-Charts > Music > Rock Guitarists
by: David Lindley

Release Date October 25, 1990
This CD is just plain fun to listen to. The music is up tempo and features a reggae type beat. However, it is not repetitive as are song CDs in that genre. David Lindley is a very talented musician and this is some of his best work.
