Re: Tell me about your favorite "guitar" albums
Being a guitarist & guitar fan, i could go on forever on this topic,
but here's a few key ones for me (emphais on the tactile grit of guitar SOUND)=
Minutemen: Double Nickels on the Dime
Captain Beefheart: Trout Mask Replica
Neil Young: Zuma
Van Halen: Fair Warning
Nels Cline Trio: Chest
Television: Live at the Old Whaldorf (Rhino Handmade)
Ray Russell: Live at the ICA
Dinosaur Jr.: You're Living All Over Me
James Blood Ulmer: Freelancing
Dream Syndicate: The Days of Wine & Roses (and the GREAT live radio sesh "The Day Before...")
Derek Bailey: Improvisation (Cramps)
Sonny Sharrock: Ask the Ages
Something by Joe Baiza: Universal Congress Of's "This is our Music" or Saccharine Trust's "We Became Snakes"
Sonic Youth: Sister
Howlin' Wolf: the "rocking chair" album (Hubert Sumlin-guitar)
Masayuki Takayanagi: too many to mention, but maybe "Complete La Grima" or "Lonely Woman"
Houdog Taylor: Natural Boogie
Marc Ribot: Yo! I Killed Your God
Tetuzi Akiyama: Don't Forget to Boogie/Route 13 to the Gates of Hell
Junior Kimbrough: Meet Me in the City
Not technically guitars, but sounds like crazy overdriven/trebled guitars a la D.Boon, Albini, Andy Gill, The Ex, etc= The Ecstatic Music of Jemaa el Fna (Sublime Frequencies)
and i could go on and on (no acoustic stuff in there, that'd be a whole 'nuther big list...)
