    I have to admit that Paisley album sounds pretty cool. That's the kind of guitar album that is right up my alley. I could do without the vocal tracks (save for the BB King one - that sounds fun from the preview) but that's the handy thing about the Ipod - uncheck 'em in Itunes and never hear 'em again. Sounds a bit like a cross between Danny Gatton and Eric Johnson in places. Strangely intriguing.
