Guitar Solos

A recent addition for blues-rock types is the CD called "Todd Rundgren's Johnson". It's a disc of Robert Johnson covers and Todd simply smokes on this one. He hasn't been doing this kind of stuff since The Nazz and the long lay off seems to have really stoked the intensity. He plays it reasonably straight (other than a very modern lead tone) but makes the familiar material entirely his own.
