Instrumental guitar music

[Iowa Tele]

I'm a big fan of instrumental guitar based albums. My preferred genre's are Blues, funk, jazz, and fusion, but I like most anything but classical. I'll start by sharing a few of my favorites (including some obscure), what are yours?

Ohm: Circus of Sound

Grant Green: Idle moments

Cornell Dupree: Dupree's Bop N' Blues

Howard Roberts: HR is a dirty guitar player

Howland/Imboden Project: S/T

 

[Beau Geste]

Larry carlton Alone/But never Alone

You should also check out his work with Oregon. The man has had an extraordinarily prolific recording career, mostly with ECM records.
