Letting the Buckethead thread slide, though I still recommend his work, especially if you like guitar-oriented rock.
In here, I'm hoping to get suggestions from others regarding music. Any type...Rock, Classical, Jazz, anything that you're into. Tell me some of your favorites--anything that you think is essential to a solid collection.
My recommendations are going to go like this: I'm going to go through the alphabet and each day I am going to recommend (up to) 8 tracks. I'll list 3 more common tracks, 3 more obscure ones, 1 instrumental, and I've decided that I'm going to add a Buckethead pick each day as well (can come up with 26 no problem). After I get to Z I should have between 150 and 200 of my own personal favorites listed.
You'll get absolutely no filler from me here--everything that I suggest is going to be songs that I either love or really like a lot (if there's a difference). As a result, there may be the odd letter (e.g. X) where I can't come up with 7 that I adore, but I'll be sure to reach 150 picks no problem. I'll probably stick to rock n' roll, myself, as that's what I know best and that's what I love most. I do have a couple hundred classical tracks but I'm the farthest thing from an expert on that type of music so if I can get some good recommendations in here then I will pursue them.
Without further ado:
A
*Aerosmith - Lord of the Thighs (4:14)
*Animals - House of the Rising Sun (4:31)
*Allman Brothers - Whipping Post (5:22)
*Acrimony - Find the Path (4:08)
*Alice In Chains - Frogs (8:16)
Acid Bath - Scream of the Butterfly (6:16)
*Amboy Dukes - Below the Belt (7:03)
--I should add...this band was Ted Nugent's first band...also check out his solo track Stranglehold--definitely worth a score
*Buckethead - Mrs. Beasley (3:57)
--released just under the title Giant Robot, as opposed to Buckethead - Giant Robot (he actually has his own disc by that name, but the one shown below is what you should get; the tunes Scraps and Scapula are also worthwhile, as is the whole disc, really--check out this one tune, for sure...Mrs. Beasley
*Best Bets
--upbeat track in Aerosmith
--raunchy track in Acrimony
--bluesy tracks are The Animals, Allman Brothers, and Buckethead
--psychedelic tracks are the Amboy Dukes instrumental, Alice in Chains and Acid Bath (the latter sounds much like The Doors)
