Greatest albums of the 20th century 23...

Willies magnum opus. Choc full of the good stuff and Grady Martin in his retirement on the road with Willie and Paul too.



Country Music will never see another album of this quality and depth ever again!
I first listened to this album solely on a whim and realised that not only was it good but seriously supergood.
And what ever your own personal skill level you can work out the changes pretty easily and play along.
What more can a poor boy want?


The BeeGees Finest album.


One true test of a great album is all the stuff that had to be left off. The BEEGEES diversified as they say but this album is a one off of the highest order.
You can learn to play these songs your self without too much trouble and then it is up to you to search your own soul for emotional depth and produce it as good as the Gibb brothers.




5* all the way and more


Docs first and best!
Has some easy to learn songs on it, e.g. My Fathers Family and Lay Down My Old Guitar but mostly it is a tour de force of fast flatpicking and ultra cool fingerpicking that stunned the world when it was released and continues to amaze even today.
They try but somehow they just cant do it like Doc.




A collection of Jimis singles and there aint much better anywhere to be found. 60's pop at the max.
Includes Burning Of The Midnight Lamp with possibly the greatest guitar intro ever put down on wax!
This one will scorch the airwaves when you give it 10!
