^Indeed, I guess I could reconsider, if only for those songs.

Robm321: The difference is, Michael Jordan didn't release a new jam DVD or whatever every time he felt like messing around with a basketball. Some of Buckethead's albums are just unlistenable noodling. Very few albums fall under this category, but it still seems unnecessary to release this sort of stuff.

Please specify when you say "latest album", as that could change by the time I read this. Do you still mean Diamond in the Rough?

I actually don't like Mozart much.

Haha, yes, we are discussing "A Real Diamond in the Rough".

But he did try to play baseball and failed miserably. I guess that would be the equivalent of Buckethead making a couple of bonehead recordings. It doesn't diminish his good ones... or shouldn't anyway. To continue with that analogy. I'd rather him be creative, take risks and fail sometimes than to play it safe.

I don't know how I ended up defending Buckethead anyway, my favorite is Steve Vai who also released some noodling CDs which I bought and enjoyed. I'd rather have them available and choose to get them or not. I don't hold it against him.
