I wouldn't say I'm an harmony dude to the exclusion of everything else, but more so I fan of decent solos. I'll take Ty Tybor over most shredders.
Nels Cline is a favorite of mine because he does the facemelt solo thing with a shit-ton of old analog stompboxes...one of the coolest guitar players to see live now-a-days... cant embed...but he is doing a guitar version of "Interstellar space"
b, 21b, 21F*ck yes.b, 21b, 21This album shreds.b, 21b, 21Also, pretty much any Iron Maiden or Thin Lizzy. I've been told the first TL album is exceptionally good (though haven't actually heard it). There's only one guitarist but he over dubs second guitar leads and shit. Apparently it's Hott Schitt.

b, 21b, 21Maiden were quite open in their Lizzy 'influence' (ahem). In fact there is a Lizzy tribute band from the Maiden 'hood called Limehouse Lizzy, who have a pretty authentic sound, so that East London area was a reknowned TL hotbed.b, 21b, 21In terms of the first TL album, it is often pegged these days as psych. The player was Eric Bell, who continued on for their first few albums before succumbing to mental and physical pressures. Whilst he was a competent bluesy player, there's no twin harmony action that comes anywhere near the GOAT heyday of classic era Lizzy.b, 21b, 21As previously mentioned, 'Southbound' is that joint.

I will take some Nels Cline over Buttrock anyday.
