I remain convinced that it can though there are few exemplars which might serve to justify that hope. I've wasted alot of money chasing this, but in the process of searching for wickedly heavy screaming guitars and driving beats WELL RECORDED, stumbled upon the genre which most closely matches my lust for musical nirvana. Also I've had some limited success with new-issue tribute albums among which is BLUE HAZE/Songs of Jimi Hendrix. Some of the tracks, notably Purple Haze and Belly Button Window, are among the best recordings of anything I have on CD.
For heavy instrumental try:
Squadrophenia by Cosmosquad
For fusion with rock instrumentation:
Tribal Tech's Thick and their Rocket Science
Then there is the hard to classify:
We Saw a Bozo Under the Sea by Zoot Horn Rollo
Most of these you can sample over the internet -- some actually may penetrate the digital haze to show their merit, but at least you can taste the type of music to see if it satisfies enough of the Rock and Roll classification to fall into what you are looking for.
I will be watching this thread with interest as well as I've found precious little that I could recommend.
