Stevie Ray Vaughan--Voodoo Child

Just came across this SRV version of Voodoo Child (originally played by Jimi Hendrix) and somehow it felt better than Jimi's own version...obviously you can't compare two legends and that's definitely not what i intend to do here. Must see how SRV doesn't even use a wah-wah pedal in the beginning (at around 00:42). RIP SRV and Jimi.

Francesco Fareri--Suspension

Suspension features Italian shred guitarist Francesco Fareri blazing on six instrumental songs in the neo-classical and progressive metal style. Much of the music showcases Fareri's mind boggling, head numbing speed, especially on swept licks - one of his specialties. Fareri states, "When I hear this music, it seems as a bird that flies near the sea without touching it - his movements are very fast around the sea which changes his motion - and it creates a sense of intrigue between the guitar solos and the rhythm parts. The rhythm section is very fast - the drums are powerful on the solos that are very fluent." Well put - a shred extravaganza!
Tracks:
  1. Suspension
  2. Pointbreak
  3. Introspective
  4. Cyborg
  5. Secrets
  6. Paradox

A Tribute To Randy Rhoads

This is an unofficial fan club video paying homage to the legendary guitarist Randy Rhoads (of the band Black Sabbath)-- Wrong fact pointed out by Rohit..Randy wasn't a member of sabbath..Thanks man.

Despite his short career, he is cited as an influence by many contemporary heavy metal guitarists. His unique neo-classical metal style of playing set him apart from other guitarists of the late 1970s and early 1980s. He was a devoted student of classical guitar technique, and his music often combined classical music influences with heavy metal.
