Buckethead is a crazy ass guitarist.

This CD is based on the city of Colma, CA. He recorded it for his mom who was sick or some shit.

It is not like his usual style at all.

And unlike many "instrument virtuoso" CDs, this is actually fun to listen to and not just some guy masturbating his six string.

Its a super chill, laid-back instrumental CD id describe as sort of a mix between rock and fusion.

He's fucking amazing. Thanks for the download dude.....

By the way, what's the name of the song from Colma that you posted the video of? I've heard that before on YouTube and it's a great song.....

My homie says Buckethead puts on the most entertaining show ever. Like doing the robot and swinging nunchucks and shit. Plus just being plain weird ass Buckethead.

Is the album laid back like Electric Tears? Or something completely different altogether?

Yeah, I'm really digging his stuff. This is the first time I really checked it out and let it soak. If anyone could post up some more albums that would be great.
This album is not much, if at all, anything like his other albums.

Electric Tears would be the closest.

He has an enormous body of work.

At my count just now from his website, hes been a prominent part (not just a guest on one or two songs) on 52 total albums.

yeah hes dope! but why does he have to wear a bucket?
Because he's Buckethead, duh.

Nah, I don't know. I honestly didn't pay dude much attention because I thought that was stupid/gimmicky but I'm glad I finally checked his stuff out.

I guess there is only one known pic of him without a mask on and it was taken for some guitar magazine in like the early 80's.

Holy fucking shit this album is fucking amazing. I'll definetely be going to slsk and raping some poor soul for the rest of the Buckethead collection. I know he's like the #8 best shredder so hearing an album like Colma really shows his range. Thanks WD for putting this shit up.
