John 5's Sugar Foot Rag (which I believe is a cover, correct me if I'm wrong.)

Shawn Lane - Maria

It's not very technical but it truely is awsome for a home production (and him playing all the instruments) and it has a beautiful theme :)

cheers

I guess I'm just one of very few people (if any) that is completely unimpressed with the sheer technicality and lack of true feeling in both Vai and Satriani's music. Yes, they are excellent guitarists and good at what they do, I'm just not into the whole "technical" thing. I'll take even a mediocre blues guitarist over either of them any day...

But, that's just my opinion...

That being said, I would also pick SRV's Lenny over Little wing - just because of the fact that Lenny was an original...

Nah, that's pretty much the way I look at it too. I'm much more inspired by music that seems human to me.

That's exactly the way I feel about Vai's music, but not Satriani's. I like the way that Satch bases his noodling on a synthesis of blues-rock and pop, it gives his music a lot more personality.
