I'm wondering what some of your favorite guitar tracks are? Not just songs by Eddie either.

One of my favorite rock instrumentals is Mr. Scary by Dokken. Man George rips on that track. I also like the song No more tears by Ozzy. Zakk really has great build and release in the solo to that song.

The Great Curve by Talking Heads...... Adrian Belew at his most insane best... sounds more like an enraged saxophonist!!!

Anything put out by Derek Sherinian but my favourite is the album Black Utopia. Just look at the names on this list:
Zakk Wylde
Yngwie Malmsteen
Steve Lukather
Al DiMeola
Billy Sheehan

Greatest playing by all of those guys in my opinion.

Still Of The Night-Whitesnake, guitar player is John Sykes. Sykes also has solo albums and another band called Blue Murder. Great playing from this guy!!

Joe Satriani-Always With Me, Always With You is really beautiful w/sweet guitar work.

George Lynch-Excellent guitar work on EVERYTHING he does, especially Dokken's "Heaven Sent."

Billy Duffy-Guitar player from The Cult. The album Sonic Temple says it all.

Vernon Reid-Living Colour guitar player who is amazing. See the albums Vivid and Time's Up for a reference.

Great players so far on this thread.

I have been listening to Alcatrazz with Yngwie Malmsteen of late.

The first two Alcatrazz recordings have some of the greatest ROCK guitar playing I have ever heard.

Yngwie was such a monster in his early days, and still is today but I like the earlier records better.

The live Alcatrazz vid from Tokyo and his first solo album are my favorites..... he certainly lifted the bar for technique in the mid 80s at a time when Ed was starting to rest on his laurels. Its a shame that he hasnt done anything interesting in the last 20 years IMHO though. But back in the day as an 18 year old I though he was the dogs bollocks for a while :D

Time to brush up on my 3 octave harmonic minor sweep picked arpeggios now :D

Chris.

If you like early Yngwie...try the Steeler cd. The one with Ron Keel on Vocals. I like that album. Too bad they didn't last long. I think he got the call from Alcatrazz after that.

Nuno's playing on "3 sides to every story" is outstanding, especially on "Cupid's Dead".
