I'm only ranking the albums I actually own. My favorites are in this order:

1. Good God's Urge
2. Nothing's Shocking
3. Ritual de lo Habitual
4. Porno for Pyros
5. Strays
6. XXX
7. The Great Escape Artist (currently, but who knows...)
8. Song Yet To Be Sung
9. Trust No One
10. Ultra Payloaded
11. Anytime At All
12. Deconstruction (sorry but Eric's voice just KILLS it for me)

And I'm NOT counting box sets, compilations, and Hell I'm not even counting Pete DiStefano solos either since nobody else is. Why are people ranking Dave/Eric/Stephen/Perry solos but not Pete's? Not counting One Hot Minute either because it's a RHCP album and we ain't talkin' about them...plus OHM is arguably my favorite album of all time so it would top the list anyways

Nels Cline is the best guitar player from the last 20 years. Hands down. Watt is a beast. More energy and inspiration than most people in this world, I love them!

ya no doubt i LOVE watt love the guy...saw him play once and he was going off broke a bass string ( never broke a bass string in my life) then broke another....he still went off harder then anyone i know who plays bass with 2 strings the whole time the other two are flopping all over the place...guys is a music machine...nels...though i'm not a wilco fan, is still a god and great of out time and prob any time

Hey, I really like Gratitude. I know for a fact there are people here who listen to some of Pete's solo stuff.

Shocking
GGU
Ritual
Decon
XXX
SYTBS

That is all I really listen to aside from OHM. With Shocking and GGU getting most of the play out of all of them.

[Kajicat]

I like all the highly-ranked GGU goin' on up in this bitch!

[tubro]

1. NS
2. RDLH
3. XXX
4. GGU
5. P4P
6. TN
7. STRAYS
8. DECON
9. SYTBS
10. Some okay stuff
11. Some total shite

Notes:
a. total cop out here but TGEA is below 3 and above 8 but only time will tell. My sense is between p4p and tn (which, in truth, i don't listen to much, but i've always thought it was a very sincere and very well crafted set of songs).
b. Didn't include any compilations, but i love kettle whistle and cabinet of curiousities
c. i really considered putting XXX first because there's been so much talk lately about what is and what is not jane's addiction, and XXX crushes the senses with the very essence of what was JA 1.0. Primal and tribal and balls out without a net legendary moment in time. but i decided its just impossible to ignore the perfection of what they released as their two masterpieces.
d. live and insane/cd3 of Cabinet probably qualifies for this list.

[Romeo]

1: XXX
2: NS
3: RDLH
4: Decon
5: P4P
6: GUU
7: TNO
8: Help wanted
9: GEA
10: Strays

The first 5 I listen to continually, the lower the next 3 once in a blue moon when the mood strikes. So you know where that leaves the bottom 2

[guysmiley]

This guy rules everyone alive............sorry.............

[Larry B.]

I wouldn't say he's not a good guitar player, but that was pretty awful.

[guysmiley]

Really? Playing with effects more than Dave ten fold and showing a back catalog of weird modal and jazz scales at a faster tempo than Dave can play. I'm sorry Nels can play circles around Dave for years on end and not break sweat.

[ESY]

Scales! Give me Daniel Ash any day. He doesn't play in scales - he playes in texture instead.

[guysmiley]

Can people not appreciate this??????

[sonny]

nels is bad ass. fun to watch as well.

something in the water, maybe? newfound love for dave, maybe? i'm not sure, but something has changed and it's not just the curtains.
