Buckethead

[Sacman]

I found him when I was looking for a metal version of Pure Imagitation on youtube...

I have a Buckethead Pandora account. Big Sur Moon is my favorite song. He's a very talented guitarists. I'm not as crazy about Buckethead as I was a while ago, but I'm still a big fan. I also have the Buckethead DVD. Probably one of the best guitarists out there.

 

[khaimera]

he's pretty good and he came to fame more from playing with Primus during the Family Values tour and then he went to join GnR

I saw them at that tour. It was my first time seeing him live and it was of course awesome. He is gifted muscially.

'Jordan' and 'Final wars' are great songs. I like them allot. Great guitarist.

Buckethead has some really great songs. Soothsayer is the one that will always stick in my head. Not only can he play like a ************, but he has a lot of character and emotion in his songs.
With that said, I'd rather listen to an entire album of some other artist than Buckethead. He has single songs that are brilliant, but I have yet to hear an entire album as brilliant. Tool and Mars Volta manages to to this. And Maynard from Tool looks more like a freak than Buckethead on most concerts! And he is my favorite vocalist, without a doubt.

I heard of him a few metal heads I know are intensely in love with him. I am not a huge fan of him however he doesnt have that musical feel to him just guitar skill. But meh I am not huge on music nor do I claim to know anything about him or have listened to a lot of his work. He is good and has made a career for himself so all in all good for him.

Heard the song "soothse..." (don't remember its name) Thought it was good.

Soothsayer most likely and yes it is pretty good.

Im a giant fan of Jordan and Nottingham Lace.

And no I didnt find about him off GH2 .

 

[PlasticTree]

I approve of..some of his work.

My response to anything Buckethead is as follows. "Here's Bucketheads rendition of the Power Ranger's theme. It's freakin awesome."

Remember to hit the "HQ" button. The actual song doesn't start until 39 seconds in.

 

[McNinja]

Ihave two of his songs: Jordan and Seige Engine. Both are outstanding pieces of music.

 

[Berethond]

He's put up some pretty decent jazz stuff. Like Population Override.

But there are a lot of better guitarists.

Like Wes Montgomery, Stanley Jordan, Joe Pass, Eric Clapton, John McLaughlin, Les Paul, and several hundred others I could name.

If you have heard of more than two of these guys, you rock.

 

[Sightless Wisdom]

Buckethead is pretty awesome. He's certainyl not the best guitarist ever, but he's damn good. Some of his best stuff is played with Les Claypool. Both hilarious people and great musicians.

 

[Julianking93]

Eh. He's alright.

 

[lwm3398]

I've played Guitar Hero 2, so yes.

OMG uR TotAL N00b For HEEriNG BOut A ArTisT FRum gH
OT: I do find this fellow's music quite splendid and ravishing.

Does it hurt to type like that?

Yes. It destroys part of your brain.

Nope, never heard of him.

 

[Lexodus]

I first heard him in the 90s when I watched the Power Rangers (along with every kid back then, when the show was good). Apparently he also applied to play at Ozzfest, but rescinded his application when Ozzy told him to 'lose the fucking bucket'.

 

[Snowalker]

Yea, they're OK.

I argee, and theres not much more I can say...

and you have to admit, it is a bit werid to dress that way.

 

[RavingPenguin]

He's alright, I just dont prefer his style of guitar playing. Im kinda more of a Stevie Ray Vaughn fan myself.

 

[KaiRai]

Buckethead is immense!!! He wrote the power rangers theme tune for a start, it can only get better from there!

Also welcome to bucketheadland is amazeeee

 

[HardRockSamurai]

I like his music, a lot

[small]I also dressed up as him for Halloween. No one knew who I was.[/small]

 

[Pimppeter2]

Does the bucket mean he's a robot?
