1969 - Steve Winwood of Traffic and Eric Clapton of Cream release an unbelieveable album of slow blues jams. Had To Cry Today and Can't Find My Way Home are instant classics. Too bad this was the bands only effort.

1976 - Edgar and Johnny Winter have collaborated many a times on each other's own albums, but this is the first and only album billed as Johnny and Edgar Winter - Together. A superb live offering if a bit short of playing time featuring Rick Derringer also on guitar.

1979 - Ex UFO guitar GOD re-joined the Scorpions (albiet very briefly but)long enough to ignite their commercially successful album, spawning 3 concert staples to this day. Lovedrive, Holiday, and Coast to Coast. The band and Schenker had continued success after this release but you never know what else could have been mustarded up.

1981 - Derek St.Holmes of Ted Nugent Band and Brad Whitford, fresh off of leaving Aerosmith team up for this rocker that cooks from beginning to end. One listen to this and you'll know Brad Whitford is Aerosmith's secret weapon. Too bad they never followed this up.

1983 - In 1982 Motorhead enlisted the talents of one ex-Thin Lizzy guitar God Brian Robinson to help finish the Iron Fist tour. Once done, the band entered the studio and this melodic masterpiece was created. Yes you heard me melodic. This is the Best ever Motorhead album ever, and the bonus live disc to boot is a treasure.

1988 - So this is really not a stylistic change for the Swede guitar God, but adding Joe Lynn Turner to the mic so a great addition, and provided what would be Malmsteens greatest commercial success. Only more albums with this line up could have made Rising Force huge.

1991 - Steve Augeri fronted this band years before he fronted Journey. This is the bands only album, and it's pretty good, kinda like Mr. Big / Journey-ish.

1993 - Poison brought in young virtuoso Richie Kotzen in the band, and believe it or not, he took over the musical direction. His influence and stamp are all over this, and it's excellent from beginning to end. Also it continues to be a fan favorite to this day, which will never likely happen again.

1994 - Out with the old (Vince Neil) and in with the new (John Corabi), the Crue delivered a whoolop of an album. Tommy Lee goes gonzo Bonham on the drums, and Corabi screams Hooligan's Holiday...this is a killer cd, too bad the band sacked Corabi prior to Generation Swine.

1994 - You know this is really more or less a Gary Moore solo cd. Jack Bruce sings a few numbers, and what a surprise, 2 of them sound like exact copies of White Room and Sunshine of your Love, each with their own Claton-esque guitar licks and solos courtesy of Gary Moore.

2004 - Released almost immediately after the death of Noel Redding, this is an interesting collection of Noel's creative input into the JH Experience. It shows off that Noel was no one-trick pony and he also didn't play 2nd banana to the great Hendrix. Noel plays lead on almost all tracks and sings while Jimi assists with the bass and rhythm guitar. Pretty cool cd for the hardcore fans.
