The middle section (where the drums kick in) is like controlled chaos. King Crimson- Larks' Tongue In Aspic , pts 1&2 Fracture Red KC's instrumentals on the three albums released in 73 and 74 were prog masterpieces and were *heavy*. The prog fan in me loves the technicality of Fripp and Co, but the metal fan in me loves the riffs! Pink Floyd-

"Song of the Wind" by Santana, as it shows off his immense talent better than most. Pure note clarity! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qj0zGxDxXVM "Pali Gap"- Jimi Hendrix. Probably the best track off "Rainbow Bridge", and whilst possibly not in the same class as "Little Wing" it still remains a masterpiece from the greatest guitarist ever, in my opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gatrtABXVm4 Lastly, "Black Napkins" by Frank Zappa. It is easy to forget or ignore what a very talented Musician Zappa was, and this needs checking out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c-NMnYhM3Q Just 1 from each Artist, or I could name you loads just from the following 3 Artists!
