For years, I've been listening to the trifecta of electric guitar: Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, and Billy Gibbons (of ZZ Top fame). However, I've finally found someone to make it a foursome. Sure, Eddie Van Halen's rhythms are killer, or Yngwie Malmsteen can sweep pick arpeggios faster than anyone else, but if you look at the trifecta, I'm more of blues guy. This is where Brian Kahanek wins it. Although his play style isn't as aggresive as Stevie's, progressive as Jimi's, or as shit-kicking as Billy's, it's still full of expression, and emotion.
I'm going to go ahead and endorse his , surprisingly, only album, Real Life. Brian goes from slow ballad in "Last Mile", to cranking it to 11 in "Sold Your Soul" and I'm sure if you have played Guitar Hero II, you've heard his single, "Gemini".
Anyway, to get a taste of what Brian is like, check him out jamming in the studio.
