Sometimes when I hear something new and fresh sounding, I wanna learn how to play it.

Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers - ZZ Top.

And anything by Roy Buchanan.  

And +1 to Bark At The Moon, actually.

Unfortunately the urge to practice soon dissipates - I'm a sloth-like creature by nature (apart from the hanging upside-down in trees bit).

Oh - Whenever I see Jesus it reminds of Guthrie Govan and then that then reminds me to practice aswell.

Surfing with the Alien is what made me take up the guitar - I heard it on a rock compilation and it amazed me.

Too many to list but recently:

Eric Johnson - Manhattan - love his style and this song always gets me in the mood for a practise.

A lot of metal but more upbeat metal (usually 80's metal) with some dominant guitars think along the lines of Motley Crue - Kickstart My Heart, you just want to pick up your guitar and play along :D (well i do...)

1952 Vincent Black Lightening (Richard Thompson) - tried playing it, started to feel like I should give up guitar, left it alone - that's a VERY specific style of playing that's totally alien to me but sounds amazing.

Some music moves me and I've no idea why, RT's work always does - beutiful work straight from the soul.

I love Richard Thompson's singing and playing, although I haven't got very much of his stuff.  

This is going to sound a bit hippy-dippy, but I wonder sometimes if we feel a sort of tribal/"race memory" connection with British/Celtic traditional music?  It just sounds so right somehow.  Not that I actually listen to it much.

By the same token, I don't feel any connection at all with the "Americana" music mentioned on Horsehead's thread, it leaves me completely cold.  But lots of you guys seem to like it, when according to my hypothesis it should only appeal to Americans.  There goes that theory then  :roll: .

In my case it's almost anything by John Lee Hooker, so I suppose that accounts for La Grange making me want to practice too.

Mind you it makes me want to dance as well, and that is just too frightening to consider
