Essential Mike Landau???
I've been hearing for a while about how amazing a guitarist Mike Landau is and that his tone his to die for, but I've never heard anything by the guy! Can someone suggest some of his music (original or session work) to listen to to get started?

Mike's on the left w/ LP ?? It was a solo acoustic performance - wrong link?

Get Mike's first solo record - Tales from the Bulge

Get The Raging Honkies - maybe "We Are The Best Band"

Get Burning Water - Abamonado ( or something like that )

+1 to ultras selections. If you are ever in the L.A. area try to catch a Landau show at the Spud. (The Baked Potato in N. Hollywood-I saw him there in 2004 during NAMM weekend)

Landau is amazing. Saw him as a backup player with Robben Ford and checked out his Myspace page. He's incredibly tasteful and plays well in a wide variety of styles. Incredible talent.

For his laid back side, his work with James Taylor is quite tasteful.

If you like the guitar sounds on "Bulge" then Karizma's "Forever in the Arms of Love" is essential also. :AOK
