Awesome ... Thank you Stephane !!
Why i didn't thought about bluesjamtracks, quite obvious. I was searching from time to time for this CD, but could not find it.
Just bought it now as well and it's downloading. Will be a good day today ...

I also think that this is one of the best guitar albums (at least in the last decade)

Could someone tell me what is so great about him? Admitedly i've only heard bits of his stuff but i haven't been impressed. I'm yet to get the album but to be honest i'm a bit reluctant to

GG rules good choice !

Knowledge, ideas, control of the instrument, technique, feel etc.
Guthrie knows a lot indeed and he is mixing styles and genres very often,
perhaps that was the reason you haven't been impressed by few clips or som.
Still he is a world class guitar guru, no one can deny that
and if you really want to expand your guitar skills
at least you have to listen to the album, my opinion.

Muris....are you describing yourself again but ACTING like you are talking about GG......

Having good theory, control of the instrument and technique etc does not necessarily make you a good musician. But you are right, perhaps i should listen to the album first and then decide

It does actually but it's hard to define what good musician is as well,
perhaps you mean catchy composer or som.

I tend to agree Muris.
I'd also add 'musicality' but I think GG has that in spades as well.
Defining what a good musician is has a subjective element - what we regard individually as musical though is possibly even more subjective. I can listen to something and accept that it is well played and has a high quotient of musical ability but not necessarily see it as musical.
As an example, both my wife accepts that there is a lot of composition and musical ability that goes in to performing Messiaen's Turangalila. She thinks its noise whereas I think its musical.
Each to their own

.Yeah, it is gray area indeed, pretty subjective.

as muris said, im crazy about how he mixes the genres, i simply love after a shreddy part, which is very tense and "high" in dynamic, he switches to a jazzy laid-back lead, now how cool is that also im crazy about his phrasing/dynamics and his ability to express him self through his instument lik: "waves" sounds like waves and the guitar almost resembles a synth, and "eric" is almost a "death hymn" (cant remember the classical word)
Try to listen to "wondefull slippery thing" its dripping sex, esspecially the funky part in the start http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LY8sok2RgE&feature=related
