Post your favourite guitar track

Having recently rediscovered my guitar after many years of electronica, I’m looking for awesome guitar tracks for inspiration…. Bonus points for stuff that’s a bit leftfield.

So TLB music aficionados, let’s hear what you got

But, for the love of god, no Eric Clapton please

 

Nice one, I will give it a listen

 

Got to be this, some of the most sampled guitar and beats of all time. Everything Ernie Islay plays is so smooth and no notes wasted. So far ahead of their time. Jimi Henrix played for them in the 60's. Not a lot of people know that.

 

I’m all for a bit of straight up rock guitar, say Steve Lukather on Rosanna, or some slide from Ry Cooder, Bonnie Raitt or Lowell George, or something a bit more simple but still brill from Keef. But two of my favourite guitarists don’t play those conventional guitar breaks, I love Johnny Marr’s Smith’s era playing, or this fella, sadly no longer with us, John McGeoch

 

Another favourite of mine, Scotty Moore

 

I've always rather liked this little song

 

I like this chap Cory Wong - he's demoing a guitar amp vst he put his name to here.

 

Someone else playing it. But this is the greatest ever. Richie Blackmore would be the original, but here’s great interpretation

 

Excellent...
Now where's the original... ?

Interesting.

Not something I would think of listening to, so looking forward to hearing this later.

 

Nice one, added to my listening list.

 

Also added to the listening list.

 

I like your thinking there Jack.
The other one I would throw in that group is Dave Lindley & El Rayo X

Mercury Blues is up there for me

 

He’s great. Only came across his stuff recently, the stuff he’s done with the Fearless Flyers and Vulfpeck, he is one funky dude

 

Love this.

 

Brilliant.

 

Reasonably left field

 

Trouble is if want a video it’s gonna be live, and live Deep Purple solos of the 70s are all about 20 mins and improvised.

the classic is from the Machine Head album.

 

Here’s the album original, intro is John Lord on Hammond organ solo followed by Richie Blackmore on fire. Guitar solo comes in at 2 minutes, but like all great music gotta play the whole track for the effect
