I'm looking for REALLY quality shredding albums, I prefer an instrumental album but it can also be a good album with a guitarist showing his shred skills quite a lot.

I'm already familiar with:
Tony MacAlpine
Malmsteen
Vinnie Moore
Jason Becker
Marty Friedman
Jeff Loomis
Petrucie
Joey Tafolla
Michael Angelo Batio
Michael Romeo
Rusty Cooley
and all these popular guys.

Thanks in advance!

Shawn Lane's 'Powers of Ten' is a cool instrumental album, although shredding is not always the main focus (but it still happens. A lot).

Paul Gilbert's work with Racer X, like 'Technical Difficulties'.

Guthrie Govan. Erotic Cakes is one of the most intense displays of skill on an instrument that I've ever heard.

I sense a real lack of James Murphy and Gus Drax in this thread. :p

I remember making that thread; the only guitarist that got recommended that I didn't like was Misha Mansoor.
