PlayPlay by Brad Paisley
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $6.91
Recommended for any fan of the guitar. Paisley is the Clapton of Country Music. Influences range from Duane Allman to Stevie Ray Vaughn and Duane Eddy. Guests include BB King & Keith Urban. The Paisley/Urban duet on Start A Band is one of my favorite songs so far in 2009...it's some of the best guitar work I've heard on a song since Hotel California or Money For Nothing.
