Perkele would be so proud of me . . .

I spent the day listening to Elegant Gypsy by Al DiMeola. Boy that guy IS pretty good. Once you get over that shiny 70s tone, the licks are amazing and as fresh as anything out there.

Also, Satriani Crystal Planet and Vernon Reid Known Unknown rounded out the study set today

Heard some Uli Jon Roth the other day on XM, and that dude was way ahead of his time. I had always read about him in guitar mags, but just never went out and bought a CD.

 

[perkele]

Gary Moore is awesome too.

 

[marshallmadman]

Gary Moore is awesome too.

Word! "Murder in the Skies".

 

[marshallmadman]

Axel Rudi Pell. German shredder. He's Michael Angelo kinda fast.

 

[majutsu]

Joboj Orange is pretty good. Much more soulful than Michael (angelo) batio, but less technical.

Listening to Marty Friedman's masterpiece again. A great old album.

A guitar machine would be more soulful and less technical than Angelo.

 

[c-sharp minor]

Timo Tolkki

Alexi Laiho

Herman Li

Sam Totman

Paul Masvidal

 

[redguru]

Al Di Meola

None better...

either in Fusion Jazz or Flamenca, think he's got the fastest fingers and cleanest sound ever.

Still have Land of the Midnight Sun in LP

 

[redguru]

Paco De Lucia, without distortion.

Paco did a duet with Al Di Meola on Al's Elegant Gypsy album. The song was Mediterranean Sundance, I believe. One of the best guitar pieces I have ever heard.

Ali Farka Toure kicks ass! Check out the new album entitled Red and Green.
