Georgy Zhukov Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 (edited) Hermit and Hands are his best albums. Edited October 26, 2012 by Stannis Baratheon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Glow Inc. Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Hard to say as they are all different.My favourite is 9.11 but if you aren't in experimental music or really into guitar in general, I wouldn't recommend starting with this one.Maybe start with either "Normal" or "Hermit" and see if you dig his lead playing style and then try something more out there like 9.11 or his Adventures of Bumblefoot album.The only album that I don't really like too much is Abnormal, mainly because of the vocals.

Bumble's Bridge Pickup Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Maybe the most straightforward rock album is Abnormal. IMO the best record he ever did is 9/11, it's about half instrumental songs though and is far from blues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristmasFnatic Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 LOL! Thanks guys for the fast replies, though man the opinion varies.OK, lets just say, something that sounds like GNR/Aerosmith style of bluesy rock?MANY THANKS!

ManetsBR Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Normal. It has truly great songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Normal or Abnormal. Uncool is great too. If you like these albums, then take a look at the acoustic album, Barefoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I like Normal better than Abnormal but both are a good place to start. Straightforward songs for the most part, mixture of lead styles, and some pretty clever and funny lyrics at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno P. Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 The albums are too different from each other, if you want heavy and hard hitting songs I'd say Hands, then Abnormal. You should probably listen to both Normal and Abnormal, since they're his most accessible albums. They are concept albums, too, and you'll like to listen to them while paying attention to the lyrics - these albums tell a story about a man that needed to take meds to become normal, but those meds blocked his ability to write music. Eventually he had to choose between being normal or writing music... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakey Styley Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I wouldn't listen to anybody saying anything that isn't Normal or Abnormal. It's not that the rest is bad, but it's certainly not good for a first time BBF listener looking for bluesy rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal being the first album, Abnormal being the follow up. Normal will tell you a great story, Abnormal took place after Normal - if that makes sense...

highvoltage Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Here's a hint - if you don't like Bumblefoot, or haven't heard any of his albums other than Chinese Democracy; don't post in a thread asking for suggestions as to his best album!Not that hard is it?

kanudo19 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 yeah people listen to high voltage.On topic, basically what we're telling u is to listen to every bbf cd there is , it's a matter of personal choice.But normal and abnormal are good ones to start with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthias Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 OK, sorry, Im basically asking which is closest to bluesy rock.Anyway thanks!Closest to bluesy rock is difficult to say, as none is that close to it. But Normal and Abnormal may be the "easiest" ones to get into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Wanna try one, whats the best?Or something that got a bluesy rock sound.
