I found this site whilst trawling for filth on the internet (I can't find any nor a single viagra ad, and boy do I need both).
Forgive the horrid URL:

But man alive! Snakes EVERYWHERE!! Actually, no snakes, instead some excellent video of various guitarists. A great version of cool #9 from Satriani recorded in England with a tres cool bass solo thrown in.
More importantly though, cos we all know Satriani and yes he's a big show off, but he has got four arms so we all smile and pretend that we don't see those extra limbs, nor the strings controlling the off-stage robot guitarist nor the sexy otter draped around his neck - man I love that otter - nor indeed does anyone pay heed to the naked emperor parading around the streets, and sometimes I wonder what if the emperor in "The Emperor's new Clothes" was actually the emperor from Jedi or Episode 2, ya know, where's he's got the whole electric fingers vibe going on and he's decided yup, I'm going to be evil...would the people in the streets laugh at his scraggly nekkidness? Or would they be looking at his magnificent lightsaber, throbbing in the night?
Anyway, there's also a faaaaantastic blues guitarist on that site called Innes Sibun. I'd never heard of him but apparently he toured with some guy called Rober Plant who used to be in some band called
Def Leppard Zappalin or something. In the only sensible part of this post, I urge you to check it out. The blues haven't sounded so fresh or energised in a long time. Beautiful tone, mellow jazz blended in the mix, just really really really good music.
