Tone Taster Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I really like Steve Vai's Blue Powder Stevie Ray Vaughn - Scuttle Buttin, Riviera Paradise, pretty Much all of his instrumentals, but those are notable Yngwie - Perpetual, Black Star Freddie King - San Ho Zay, Hideaway Albert Collins - Ice Pickin' Lonnie Mack - Wham !

LPCustom Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I think one of my favorite instrumentals has got to be "Hibernation" by Ted Nugent. Satriani's "A Train of Angels" isn't too bad, either. Born on the Bayou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, that's why i titled it as such to kind of narrow the topic down. I am excluding the fusion stuff for the sake of a future topic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gifthorse Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 SRV Riviera Paradise Jimmy Page Braun err or whatever it is called. I know it is cheating but it is from a 'rock' player. Embryonic Journey Jorma Koukanen--another 'cheat' because he was in a rock band. Hellecasters theme song the Jerry Donahue solo is really cool. http://flagshipmile.dmusic.com/ http://www.myspace.com/gifthorse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Geoff Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Free, 'All Right Now' just fits the song so well. Does Bryan Adam's solo in 'Everything I Do' count? It's such an unexpectedly original and sympathetic solo (IMHO). G.

Those are great solos, however, the topic involves tunes which are ALL instrumental and which are in the rock/blues genre. I believe you picked tunes that have vocals.

rw2003 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I consider myself a "hard rock" type but I do love surf instrumentals, especially "punked-up" versions... Ventures Walk Don't Run and Hiwaii 5-0. Wipeout (Classic that all recognize) Pipeline (esp. the Johnny Thunders version) Let's not forget Link Wray's Rumble. Oh yeah, ya gotta love Led Zep's Moby Dick. Isn't that played in Dropped D tuning? And Rat Salad by Black Sabbath.
