Has buckethead gotten any love in this thread yet?



He is a guitar/ instrumental god! He has probably written more instrumentals then this entire forum combined He is at like 400+ albums currently I believe, most if not all are instrumental.

Here are some more of my favorite inspiring instrumentals:



The 2 drummer drum solo in this is absolutely amazing! Such an incredibly tight and groovy German jazz group


Camel is one of the tightest and jazziest rock groups I have heard, their guitarist gets into some sizzling solo's for how jazzy they are though. This live tune overall sounds spot on like the studio version but with some extra groovin.

 

[Rolling Thunder]

That's Flea on the horn

 

[SanDiegoHarry]

Deep Purple - A 200

Oh lord - that's a flashback. SO not "Deep Purple" and yet...

Yeah, that was my last DP album and the one that made me realize that great bands can lose their greatness.
