Guitar Albums

Here are a few ideas about what might constitute the great guitar albums of all time. How many have you got and what may be missing from the list? Think of all the magnificent (now) vintage guitars that produced these unique, exceptional and magical recordings.

This list is a bit of fun and is not intended to be comprehensive. The odd error may also have crept in, so I wouldn’t rely on it as a piece of research material. Apologies too if I’ve missed anything crucial…
