Hi guys,
Was just listening to Stevie Ray Vaughan's exceptional rendition of Little Wing and started thinking about how pure a listening experience it is for people who truly love guitar.
I love metal and it will always be go to for most situations, but from a purely musical stand point I keep coming back to these melodic classic gems and am a little bit more seduced each time. I might be getting old..
Anyway, I need more. So I would like to know of any of your go to songs for a similar experience?
My 3 are probably quite generic in terms of musical taste but don't be afraid to get a little out there..
SRV - Little Wing
As you may have guessed this is first on my list (although oddly not my favorite). I love Hendrix but that song always feels like a missed experience every time I listen to it when compared to some of the later renditions (sorry )
Steve Vai - Tender Surrender
I always had a soft spot for little Stevie Vai in serious mode..
Between the Buried and Me - Selkies the Endless Obsession
Had to include this if I was going to be honest with myself. The way the second half of this song is constructed is one of the greatest moments in modern metal for me.
Anyway, show me what you got!
