I jus listen to Steve Vai's Touching Tongue and it was jus great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear what I heard was what I heard in my head long ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I jus heart Steve Vai's Till it sleeps on internet radio, and it's really inspirational, I'm gonna buy The 7th song album and I have a feeling it'll be onr of my top ten albums of all time.
 
1) Yngwie Malmsteen - Far Beyond the Sun (LIVE!!!) / Far Beyond the Sun
2) Yngwie Malmsteen - Rising Force
3) Yngwie Malmsteen - Icarus Dream Suite Op 4 / Appeggios From Hell
4) Mr. Big - Burn (cover)
5) Yngwie Malmsteen - Forever One / Miracle of Life

P.S. YJM's "Black Sheep Of the Family" sounds kinda cute. :lol:

(I like Steve Vai and Joe Satriani too, but there's no room for more songs :p)

1) Jason Becker - Serrana
2) Yngwie J Malmsteen - Far Beyond the Sun
3) Van Halen - Eruption
4) Nicolo Paganini - 24 Caprices Opus 1

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
Joe Satriani - Crowd Chant
X Japan - Weekend
 
Jimi Hendrix - Foxey Lady
Steve Vai - Little Wing Live G3, awesome
Guns N Roses - Paradise City

By far the best and most prolific, melodic guitar solo is found on 'Cinnamon Girl' by Neil Young, pay attention.....
 
You have to acknowledge that there were really only 2 guitar players who were able to influence generations of players:

1. Jimi Hendrix
2. Eddie Van Halen

Without Jimi doing his thing or Eddie playing Eruption, who knows where the guitar would have ended up?!
