    Doesn't have to be a guitar solo album, just one that has great guitar work throughout.

    Mine:

    Artist: The Stone Roses
    Album: Second Coming
    Guitarist: John Squire

    Or:

    Artist: Guns N' Roses
    Album: Appetite for Destruction
    Guitarist: Slash (+ Izzy Stradlin)

    Television - "Marquee Moon"

    have to disagree on the second Stone Roses album - its a pale LedZep facsimile (and I'm a huge fan of both Zep and the first Roses album).

    Megadeth - R[ust]IP/Peace Sells... But Who's Buying?
    Pantara - CFH/VDOP
    Slayer - Reign In Blood/SITA
    Joe Satriani - Surfing With The Alien
    Mr. Bungle - Mr. Bungle

    I know the last one might seem like an odd pick, but to me it's many different things, Trey Spruance I believe did an awesome job on guitar, they make you headbang with a few thrashy riffs, they also got a great groove, some melodic parts and lots of funk, on top of lounge and jazz.

    No Bernard Butler and his whammy bar. He ruined a Bert Jansch gig with it once
