Country Guitar Thunder (2000)

About this title: Country music has a history of great songwriting, but rarely are musicians other than vocalists given attention for their skill. Country Guitar Thunder is a fascinating collection that puts the musicians in the spotlight. Featuring classic recordings from Merle Travis and Joe Maphis, as well as a host of new stars, the album shows off a variety of country and bluegrass picking styles -- sometimes displayed at blinding speed.
