Iron Maiden – Rock In Rio (Disc 1)
Rock in Rio by Iron Maiden is one of my all time favourite live albums, a double disc helping of pure unchecked metal awesomeness.

Great video for all you guitar Nerds
This morning I watched a great short video produced by Reverb.com called "Welcome To Nerdville: Inside Joe Bonamassa's Museum and Vintage Guitar Collection". It's a fantastic film and while only 25 mins long, gives a little insight into the massive collection of gear Joe has built up over the years, especially Fender and Gibson (the Ragin'...
