Thos are standout tracks like The Rolling Stones’ gritty "Can’t You Hear Me Knocking," blending Keith Richards’ raw riffs with Mick Taylor’s impromptu solos and Bobby Keys’ sultry sax. Larry Carlton’s smooth "Burnable" showcases lyrical precision in jazz fusion, while Nils Lofgren’s heartfelt "Keith Don’t Go" is an emotional nod to Keith Richards. Albert King’s "Born Under a Bad Sign" channels blues swagger with timeless riffs, and Matt Schofield’s "Dreaming of You" thrives on live-stage chemistry. Whitesnake’s "Crying in the Rain" contrasts its bluesy 1982 version with the glam-metal sheen of 1987, and Silverchair’s intense "Freak" bursts with grunge angst. The G3 tour performance of "Highway Star," featuring Joe Satriani, Phil Collen, and John Petrucci, turns the classic into a fiery guitar duel, while Kenny Wayne Shepherd’s "Deja Voodoo" asserts youthful blues-rock audacity. Eddie Van Halen’s NAMM demo mixes personal anecdotes with spontaneous riffs, leaving an intimate yet electrifying mark.
