The Forced Listening Thread
a pack of wolves:
Powering drums, stabbing guitars, bass that anchors the whole endeavour and keeps it rolling on like the unstoppable juggernaut and of course that attacking saxophone. Yep, it's Sweep The Leg Johnny. Swagger, sex, darkness, this is punk rock the way it's meant to sound: fucking hard and inventive as hell.
10/10
Okay, enough of all this rock business. Time for the greatest guitarist France ever produced:
Django Reinhardt - Mystery Pacific

@KharBev: your questions 1, 2 & 4 have to be answered by using a "no", question 3 deserves a "yes".

Django Reinhardt - Mystery Pacific
I have to say that normally I am a fan of guitar music. But however skillfull this piece was, it's veering between dischordant semi-shredding and 1920's dance music was almost unlistenable to me. Pretty much truly revolting musically, but I have to credit the pretty immense amounts of skill being shown off. So, although I HATED this track, 4/10
For some reason, when you said skillfull guitar, I was expecting some John Williams type beautiful classical stuff. So, I feel I must deliver beauty:
Cruachan - Ride On
Enjoy.

I don't suppose anyone would know if that's Stéphane Grappelli playing the violin on that track? It probably is. Anyway, he's fantastic.

I think it's him, but unfortunately I downloaded that track so I have no liner notes to help me. It's apparently from the album 'Art of Django' if that's any help. I've got 'Golden Hour of Stephane Grappelli' on now, that man really was one hell of a player. But he was always at his best with Django.
