    Weird Al Yankovic

    At least someone else admitted to it first.

    I have every Weird Al album in existence plus his movie, UHF, on DVD AND VHS.

    Weird Al kinda beats out everything else in my collection then again, I don't have a complete collection of every album from any other artist except Weird Al so it kinda makes that set of albums a fluke.

    Tom Principato has worked with both and plays a lot like the two.

    I saw Junior Brown last year and he is as quick as any of these guitar masters. Shameless plug for the guy, I would also like to add to my list I just realized I have a ton of Ten Years After.

    Thanks for the tips -- always looking for new (to me) guitarists.

    BTW - was Junior Brown at the Ram's Head (and I missed it, dammit)?

    Mike,
    Try Junior's Semi Crazy . I picked it up after seeing him on Austin City Limits. First time I'd ever seen a guitar plaed on a stand...
