Buckethead!

[AxlRoseCalifornia]

So i saw this video:

Buckethead and Brain Jam [original video]

And became interested in exploring Buckethead's material.

Iv checked Electric Tears and Colma already cause they were the albums that most came up on Youtube.

but where should i start? and is there any Buckethead album that has Brain on the tracks also?

I just love the way they work together! Especially in that video.

Thank you

Brain is featured on quite a few Buckethead albums.  On Colma, he plays drums for the track "For Mom" (maybe more tracks but I'm unsure).

Start with "Dragons Of Eden", Praxis - "Transmutation", "The Big Eyeball in the Sky", then "A Real Diamond in the Rough".

Don't forget "Giant Robot NTT" which is a free album and can be found here:  http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NJVSTWSS

Giant Robot and Crime Slunk Scene are two of my faves.

Im totally falling in love with buckethead's work. Love it! He plays everything! Amazing!! 

[CITR]

check out his new album shadows between the sky

[AxlRoseCalifornia]

 i will! im on the "A real diamond in the rough" one

Inbred mountain is another really good one, one of his best imo. 

Nice Raiden avatar CITR.  I just got a PS3 and MGS4 last week, almost beat it and it is awesome.  Hopefully the new raiden game is on the same level of greatness as all four mgs games... i'm very skeptical of it.

Pray to god this new director for the MG series is as inspiring as Hideo Kojima...

The album I usually suggest for first-time listeners is Enter the Chicken, it's the most accessible. (Well, maybe "The Hand" does not fall into that category, even though it's the best song on the album :P )

Elephant Man's alarm clock is great also.
And Acoustic Shards. And... oh fuck it just download the discography and put it on shuffle.

I'd have to say Enter the Chicken would be one of the last i'd recommend, i'd say Population Override or Crime Slunk Scene
