Right now, I've got CD's from one of the greatest avant-garde guitarists ever, Buckethead, in the player and by the stereo.
Here's the CD's I recommend:
Monsters and Robots. It features Les Claypool, Bootsy, and Brain, and a host of other musicians. Easily one of my favorite CD's of all time, especially for The Ballad Of Buckethead.
Giant Robot. Way cool.
Praxis - Transmutation. Incredibly good.
Colma- mellow, darn artistic, and very very good.
Somewhere Over The Slaughterhouse - Lots of Electronica in here, however still very good.
Praxis - Metatron - Awesome CD.
What's even funnier is that he's the lead guitarist now for one of my favorite bands of all time, Guns N Roses. His usual drummer, Brain, is now the GNR drummer. This guy kicks butt no matter what he plays. And, because of him, I'm startin to pick up a lot of electronica and jazz fusion you'd never catch me listening to
