I'm going to work my way through these favourites in an attempt to expand my musical sphere. It would be helpful if there were recommended tracks for people who'd like try something representative. I'll start

Joe Satriani: Stars race across the sky (remix or original)
Gary Moore: Still got the blues

Michael Hedges 'Aerial Boundaries'.



An astonishing piece which sounds like it is 3 different musicians - but is 1 guy with 1 guitar in 1 single take and no overdubs.

Hedges died way too young in a road accident.

What an interesting collection of answers. Hardly an agreement to be seen, and that's probably about as it should be. We are a disparate bunch, but we've all got bloody good taste. :lol:
