What's your favourite instrumental album?

[pooo]

As above.

Personally, I would rate Joe Satriani's Crystal Planet as my all time favourite/best instrumental album, followed by Neil Zaza's Staring at the Sun.

 

[chimaera]

Eric Johnsons Ah Via Musicom,....

 

[neuro182]

I prefer The Extremist album & Time Machine.

Hee.

Passion and Warfare - Steve Vai

 

[brundisium]

explosions in the sky-the earth is not a cold dead place

 

[turtlemuscle]

G3 live-in concert.

 

[neuro182]

Hmm

Actually I love all of Joe Satch's album, esp when he stills keeps his long hair. I salute him for breaking the norm & shaved it bald :supz:

 

[Stillborn]

currently Kiko Loureiro's No Gravity......

but changes constantly.........

 

[echoist]

Vital Tech Tones - VTT2. Scott Henderson's control is superb, plus the rythmn section of Victor Wooten and Steve Smith, nothing can beat them.
followed closely by Vernon Reid's "Mistaken Identity" and Neal Zaza's "Staring At The Sun" (Steve Smith played drums in there too!)

 

[neuro182]

Hmm

Can I add 2 more to my list?

Liquid Tension Experiment 1 & 2 Thanks.

Vangelis's Themes: top rated synthesizer

 

[strats]

Vai's firegarden..ok so the second part has singing but first part is all instrumental.. does that count?

 

[subversion]

my fav, instrumental album, featuring 2 lethal players at work:

 

[AgingYouth]

explosions in the sky-the earth is not a cold dead place

Nice.

Charlie Haden & Pat Metheny - Beyond The Missouri Sky
Tortoise - TNT
Wes Montgomery - Movin' Wes
Herbie Hancock - The Headhunters
Ennio Morricone - Cinema Paradiso OST

 

[Vaiyen]

Vai's "the 7th song"
followed closely by
Friedman's "Scenes"
followed closely by Malmsteen's "Rising Force"


can't wait to check out Andy Timmon's cds!

 

[bongman]

Jean Michel Jarre - Revolutions

 

[MadWerewolfBoy]

lol... listen to vai and satriani all day for a few months until sian liao...

now when i see the term "instrumental" i'll think of pianos or orchestral stuff...

currently like all the FF sound tracks and piano collections...

i think most, if not all of them are composed by Nobuo Uematsu... quite good...
