I just noticed the thread in the Collab Zone. Surprised there wasn't more discussion about it (I'm not for or against btw). ------------- Magma America Great Make Again |

The correct answer is April 11, 2015. Buckethead was a three year-long, off-and-on discussion that occurred under three different Eclectic Prog Teams. Finally I made the decision to propose him to Prog-Related (my first ever PR suggestion, I believe). ------------- https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays" rel="nofollow - https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays |

Great! Now we just have to get Matt Berry on the progarchives and then I'll be able to sleep at night. And while we're at it, how about William Shatner? |

Well he has been making up for not being in PA for years by releasing mini album after mini album in 2015. Every time I get onto the site homepage their literally seems to be at least another new release from him lol. Now he is doing a 1 month countdown to Halloween series where every day he releases another 30 min album.  I don't think I have ever seen anything like it!
 HOW is he able to come up with so much material in so little time??? I have not tried his music yet but there seems to be a good amount of positive feedback, which is surprising as you would think the music quality would be low given how little time it takes for him to write new music. Has anyone tried any of these endless 2015 mini albums and are they any good? |

I don't even want to go near that pile, LakeGlade. The guy is insane (has been for years - he had a chicken coop put up in the studio when recording with Guns 'n Roses), and seems to have reverted to the approach of 'if there is a large amount of music by my hand, the chance increases that there is something good in there'. ------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.

I agree. He is clearly utterly barking mad, and, just for once, I have no inclination at all to listen to what I have been missing. ------------- Enhance your life. Get down to www.lazland.org |

Absolutely, it's the Barry Manilow Theory (or close to it): you write a million songs, one of them's gotta be a hit (though Buckethead should be tagged Obsessive rock). I don't mind him here, the old PA conservatism is still going strong. If it wasn't, we'd have every shredder that was ever featured on Guitar 9. ------------- "Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." -- John F. Kennedy |

Most of them have been uploaded to YouTube. Some of them are fantastic and others are just 'meh'. Both stylistically and quality wise, the guy is all over the place! Here's one of the recent Halloween countdown ones: ------------- Magma America Great Make Again |

I used to call this too prolific musician goddammotherf**kersonofabitch, but when I listen to Buckethead's music on YouTube I have to say that it's pretty good.  ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour) |

I'm glad he was added. This site rocks even more now. Glad to be a part of this number. I first got into him around 2000 or '01. I think I have heard about everything he has released, including some obscure stuff only around on youtube et al (e.g. some gig he played in someone's living room for a wedding, I believe it was, and a couple of personal discs he did by request). Jimi Hendrix was once a personal favorite guitar player, but that has changed. David Gilmour's style blows me away; the emotion he can convey with a guitar is one of those few experiences I've had that make existence tolerable through whatever angst may present itself. Crappy choice of words but I'm at a loss trying to express it. The solo in Time remains my personal favorite. But this is about Brian Carroll. When I heard the following some I knew I had to hear more. Just a 'simple' electric go, but the feeling conveyed by it is similar to what Gilmour does, in my opinion: <iframe width="420" height="315" src=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/rP9ipbjWZIA" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/embed/rP9ipbjWZIA " frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Maybe I'm crazy. I don't mind. One more that I find one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard: <iframe width="420" height="315" src=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/VZ3_-SbtOL0" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/embed/VZ3_-SbtOL0 " frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> I love that track. It also displays some originality in the playing that he sometimes displays. I'd say 'often,' as opposed to 'sometimes,' but the volume of work has become almost unbearable, even for the serious fan, I must confess. I'll keep consuming but for repeated listens I have no choice but to restrict myself to those few hundred tracks by him that I really dig. I even started a text list, back in 2008, with personal ratings, as there was no other way that I could sort the wheat from the chaffe (sic?), if you will. Some other artists--like Senmuth from Russia--mass produce comparably, but there isn't enough time in a second to keep up with them all. Hope to discover some more treasures via forum communication, etc. Thanks for having me. |

Apparently, my first attempt at a youtube embed wasn't so groovy. I'll figure it out in time, barring head injury. I would have just edited, but that option appears to be nonexistent. |

Hey Buckethead fans and haters! For the fans: i finally finished reviewing ALL the PIKE series. I'm not sure what possessed me but i made it through! You can find a nice cohesive list of ALL my Buckethead Pike reviews on a nice tidy list on my Rate Your Music page: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/siLLy_puPPy/buckethead-pikes-in-numerical-order-with-reviews-1/" rel="nofollow - BUCKETHEAD PIKES in NUMERICAL ORDER with REVIEWS!!! - Rate Your Music For all the haters: you will no longer be subjected to a flood of the chicken lover's ceaseless output on the front page except for new releases which i will review as they are released. However i will be reviewing all the pre-Pikes which there are about 30 or so left but not all at once as i need a little break! So as long as he doesn't release like 100 new albums in one day or something, you can have chicken lover free PA experiences for the most part  Hope you find the page and reviews useful. It took approximately 14 months to finish this project. Whew  |
