I just can't seem to stop listening to Galaxie 500's On Fire and it got me thinking...What are some of your favorite albums for guitar? Any kind of guitar is fine...acoustic, spanish, your homemade 3 string...

Steve Vai- sex and religion
Tommy Emmanuel- only

I have quite a few, actually:

Andy Timmons - Resolution
Buckethead - Giant Robot
Gary Hoey - Animal Instinct
Hellecasters - The Return Of The Hellecasters
Jason Becker - Perpetual Burn
Joe Satriani - Surfing With The Alien
John 5 - Requiem

Guitar Albums?

~ Jason Becker - Collection
~ Michael Lee Firkins - Michael Lee Firkins
~ Cacophony - both Speed Metal Symphony and Go Off!
~ Marty Friedman - Music For Speeding (though most of his CDs will do)
~ Shawn Lane - Powers of Ten
~ Jonas Hellborg - Octave of the Holy Innocents (buckethead on guitar) or anything he's done with Shawn Lane.
~ Tony MacAlpine - Maximum Security
~ Racer X - either Technical Difficulties or Superheroes (both are excellent)
~ Paul Gilbert - Silence Followed by a Deafening Roar

And I guess I'll include Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force for influential reasons.

Pretty much all of Randy Rhoad and Dime Bag Darrell's stuff

If you have a TT, it's not that hard to track down some of his LPs. Very good sound quality and mine were $1-$2 each.... incredible bargain.

Led Zeppelin - III
Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds - Live at Radio City Music Hall
Pink Floyd - The Wall
Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Metallica - The Black Album

I'm not a huge fan of Satch's later works, but this one is amazing.
