Foghat: first seven, underated classic 70's hard rock, great for driving, with its eye to the US musical landscape as much as the Clash

Hendrix: Are You Experienced (No Re-1 version) Holy Grail
does seem to have more air and punch to it

Edgar Froese: 4CD Solo Collection: complements nicely classic era Tangerine Dream, nobody does space better

Rock Island: S/T nice 1970 US Hard Rock with Beatlesquese harmonies and musicality, later became Rain

Incredible Hog: Volume 1 +4, good '70 UK hard rock, not much guitar carnage, but spare bass driven muscular sound

David Kuckhermann: http://www.youtube.com/user/DavidKuckhermann

Meat Puppets: First 5, interesting this time around i am surprised at how arty
the guitar intros/bass work is/are
alot of pere ubu-ish cadences and Discipline era King Crimson sonics
the bass work is very unrootsy/unswinging, very 80's hyperkinetic/herky jerky
juxtaposed against the guitar work which is very American roots grounded, still I find their live work their strength:
