Calling All Queen Fans
by Queen ·





There are several "Greatest Hits" albums available for Queen, so I am not sure which one is being referred to, but it is a safe bet that whichever one you happen to pick up, there will be a couple familiar songs, and probably a few you haven't h...(more)

Absolute Fretboard Trainer

Great resource! Mark pretty much said it all, but I'd like to second his endorsement. Definitely worth your time to take a look!

Guitar69.com

A refreshing departure from the usual run-of-the-mill guitar site, Kevin combines elements of a homepage. This creates a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. Not flashy, but well thought out, and the lessons are top-notch. Definitely worth a look!

Lessons

WholeNote member Stone Dragon has provided the music world with a great service by sharing his knowledge this way. You'll get more here for free than you would get if you paid for a couple years of lessons anywhere else. More than just guitar st...(more)

From The Cradle
by Eric Clapton ·





Clapton shows how and why he has become a legend in his own time. This is not simply a cd, it is an event in music history. A must-have for all rock and blues fans.

King Of The Delta Blues
by Robert Johnson ·





I picked this up on cassette shortly after I graduated from high school...I listened to it once and it freaked me out so bad I put it away for about 10 years. The performances on this album/cd are profound, especially considering what was going ...(more)

Wisconsin Death Trip
by Static-X ·




Static-X blasts off with an all out in your face sonic assault. Samples, noise, and...yes, static. Intense lyrics, brutal rhythms. Standout tracks: Title track, "I'm With Stupid," "Love Dump." Keep disco evil!

Millenium
by Backstreet Boys ·




The constant out-of-hand bashing of the BSB is pretty pathetic. The guys are talented. They have great production and good songs. They deliver a <i>product</i>. I am a sucker for harmonies and good voices. I don't care who wrote it or who is pla...(more)

Kazaa
·




I used to be pretty much sold on AudioGalaxy, but once they started their premium subscriber service, it seems like us "non-payers" took a backseat, and it got a lot slower and harder to use. That's fine, you get what you pay for. Kazaa is a gre...(more)

SongMeanings

This is a fun site, with lots of lyrics. Tends toward newer stuff, but there is a pretty good variety there. Most of the lyrics are user-submitted, so be aware that there is no guarantee of 100% accuracy, but in my experience, they seem to do pr...(more)

Guitar Chords And Tablature Site

He goes a bit heavy on the Marillion and Fish stuff, but there is a surprising variety here. Lots of semi-obscure stuff and forgotten gems. Overall the quality is pretty darn good. The site itself is nothing fancy, but Ed has really put some tim...(more)

Great selection of links to a wealth of info for southpaw guitarists. Tabs, chord charts, info on modifying standard right-hand guitars. Finally, a resource for lefties!

Queen
by Queen ·





I concur with Ant. This was Queen incarnate. Considering the cut-and paste approach they had to use to finish the thing, often rushing in for half an hour of available time any hour of the day or night, the finished product is nothing short of a...(more)

A very promising site with room to grow. You're going in the right direction, Shawn, and your playing is great. Interesting layout, and I love your use of the fretboard for navigation - a very nice touch. On the main page, the t-shirt alone make...(more)

Great site with some nice free schematics. Part of the "Musician's Friend" site. Worth a look, if you have a bit of technical/electronics knowledge.

This is an excellent resource for guitarists of all skill levels. The paid content is top of the line, but even the free stuff is amazing. Just take a look for yourself - a mere description can't do it justice!
