Guitar was marketed as the sequel but it's not. These are all straight up real recordings of live guitar solos. Clapton, Hendrix and Beck were as good as Zappa.

This is a great disk but kinda hard to listen to all the way thru. I think it's the other way around, Zappa was as good as the others. The only time I got to see him was way back the night after he did Saturday Night Live with the Coneheads in the late '70s. What a performance they put on with so much equipment the players could only move about 3 feet each.

Spun ELP Best Of this morning after getting tickets to see Keith Emerson the other day.

At work a mix of Buckethead, Praxis, SMV, and Tal Wilkenfeld.
