I reckon at least one of those LOLs is from Devi Ever. She did exactly the same to me when I said I thought good soldering was an important skill.
My unsung guitarist is Carrie Brownstien of Sleater Kinney. Phenomenal player. Not tidy and neat, but ballsy (sic) aggressive, inventive and versitile. Their album 'The Woods' is one of my favourites.
Big fan of Aaron and Bryce Dessner from The National. Really great, complimentary players, and some of their fingerpicked stuff is phenomenal.
Also Kaki King - she is known for her acoustic virtuosity, but I like her electric playing better - really nuanced, clever and distinctive.
I was about to say Dave, Bruce and Rick.
few moments will beat coming off stage last year in Milwakee and having both Bruce and Rick say how much they liked what we did.
So then I showed them my 3 Trouble tattoos.
Tone, expressiveness and very melodic.
My favourite solo of his is "Games people play" - 3:17 and he also played the outro solo on "Wuthering Heights"
I know we have Lukather, Landau and Huff for lush AOR solos but Tim Pierce (sessioner and one time member of Rick Springfield's band) plays perfectly constructed short, sweet solos - 2:20 and excuse the crap vid and cheesy song.
I also don't think we mention Tom Scholz and Barry Goodreau of Boston enough. We know the music, we know the Scholz products, but these guys were excellent on those first 2 albums. Melodic solos and one of the best dual harmony guitar partnerships ever!!!!
And, having just heard 'Axe Victim' for the first time yesterday (I know, I know) Bill Nelson, bloody hell !
Andy Latimer (Camel)
John Goodsall (Brand X)
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
John Reis (Hot Snakes, Drive Like Jehu, Rocket From The Crypt, Sultans, Nightmarchers)
King Buzzo (Melvins, Fantomas)
Gary Holt (Slayer, Exodus)
Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth, Chelsea Light Moving, solo)
Stephen Malkmus (Pavement, solo)
Noise, randomness, ballistic uncertainty.
EDIT:
Is it Terry Bickers that plays the solo on HoL's "Shine On"...? Great little solo, that.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
