4. Evile - Enter The Grave (Releasing in September) Check their myspace...just found these guys, they are bringing back Thrash!
5. Lamb Of God - Burn the Priest, New American Gospel, As the Palaces Burn, Ashes of The Wake, The Sacrament. These guys fucking tear it up!
6. Down - NOLA, Down II : A bustle in your Hedgegrow. Phil Anselmo's side project that turned out good. They just reunited and should have a album dropping soon!

Hell yeah! I mention these bands to people around here and they say "huh?".
Cradle of Filth! Saw them in Atlanta earlier this year. They kicked butt for an hour but had to stop. Turns out they all had the flu and it about killed them to play, but they kicked ass for an hour.
System of a Down! I love the Toxicity album; it's probably my all-time favorite album.
Jack Johnson for when I want to mellow out a bit.

Yes...I love music just as much as I love the ganja. Can't have one with out the other. Love and marriage..love and marriage...fuck I love Married with Children. HAHA ok anywho here is my top ten for Jazz and Blues had to mix these together Haha 
.
1. Al Di Meola - Elegant Gypsy (MUST HAVE). Anything and everything this guy puts out is fucking bad ass...I love the Spanish/Mediterranean music he does along with his Jazz Fusion stuff. And he even does some Classical...which I love too.
2. John Mclaughlin - Another Jazz Fusion with a Mediterranean influence...like Al Di Meola...you really can't go wrong with any of his older stuff.
3. Frank Gambale - Wow...his sweeps are amazing. Another artist who you can not go wrong with.
4. Wes Montgomery - Smokin On the Half Note (Must Have). Gotta love Wes!
5. Robben Ford - Amazing and tasty Blues guitarist.
6. BucketHead - now he usually is a experimental metal guitarist, but he has this album called Population Overload and it is one of the most beautiful guitar works Ive heard.
7. Jaco Pastorious - Any thing by this fusion bass player is awesome.
8. Charlie Byrd - I really like his Bossa Nova.
9. Chick Corea - Im sure many of you have already heard of him. I like his piano work but his keyboard stuff is rockin.
10. Victor Wooten - Played with Bela Fleck , guy is something else on the bass guitar.

I listen to mostly jazz and classical, and have for the past 30 years or so.
If I compiled a top ten album list, I think I would make two lists for jazz...one electric and one mostly acoustic....gotta put on my thinkin' cap!!!......
Gambale and Dimeola and Mclaughlin on your list have me wondering if you have heard John Scofield who sounds like a more raunchy version of all three of these guys rolled into one....(sorta).....?

Just some idiot
It's tough to put just ten on one list, I'm still whittling mine down. You should do a top ten album list, it's fun to do these. And it also allows us to get to know new music and say something personal about ourselves, since we can't actually give names and pictures due to our Barbaric Mary Jane laws....Very interesting and eclectic list reef!
