Hi guys. My cousin just turned me onto to Buckethead. Wow this guy is amazing.... What do you think are his best albums? I need to start somewhere!

Thanks!

Start with Praxis: Transmutation and work your way from there. It's from '92 and has Bootsy, Buckethead, Bernie Worrell, and Brain from Primus. It was produced by Bill Laswell. That's a solid start, IMHO.

Crime Slunk Scene or Decoding the Tomb of Banshee Bot are some of my favs.

Electric Tears, Population Override, Pepper's Ghost, Colma, and Monsters and Robots are all great albums.

Monsters and Robots is a great album.

Another Guitarist in the same vein is Bumblefoot. Like Buckethead he also played with GNR in recent years.

Enjoy

My favorite is Colma, its a spaced out, chill, meditative/trance album thats really cool for unwinding. Its very different from his normal stuff.

I've seen him live a few times, very entertaining. He does robot dancing, nunchuks, and a whole bunch of other crazy stuff in addition to shredding.

Colma is Nice. Acoustic Shards. Bucketheadland. Elephant Man's Alarm Clock. Those are my favs.

Kaleidoscalp. There's really no way to describe it other than absolute industrial insanity, but it's still brilliant in every sense of the word.

And yeah, Colma is great too.
