The greatest controlled thematic exploration of psychedelic jazz guitar. The first four songs are better than the last two. Great cameos by Sugarcane Harris and Captain Beefheart.

I don't really like the inclusion of compilations, but there are more than a few fantastic choices here. From fantastic number one (it could be my number one soon too) to Love and Superunknown in top 10 to that Iron Maiden debut, all the albums I personally love.
