Should I just work my way down and buy everything I don\'t already own? It all seems so good.
Damn strait EVERYTHING you can find
I forgot to add:
Are there any albums on there I should buy before others? Albums that are very good I\'ll probably want right away?
I\'ve heard good stuff about Thanatopsis and Cobra Strike...
Thanatopsis is great along with everything,the must have\'s in my book are "EMAC", slunk crime scene, peppers g, and get chicken noodles, that is an extension of population override, great guitar and keyboard,if your looking for great halloween stuff DCK is like horror movie background music and effects, you cant go wrong with anything. there is stuff that you must find online also. I can help if you need it ;D both cobra stikes I love there a little more upbeat riffs gallor,go online and find Praxis any albums would do. The first, Transmutalation and Metatron are both great.
Cool, thanks.
I just ordered Pepper\'s Ghost from this website on Thursday. I think when I get the money I\'ll buy either CSS, or one of the Cobra Strikes.
Which Cobra Strike do you think is better?
not sure but start with cobraII check out beware of the holding funnel on you tube it will blow your mind that is on cobra II along with the rest of it,keep in mind get the first also a must. http://youtube.com/user/PetesBloodyHand
He has plenty of vidio\'s http://youtube.com/watch?v=4wxxWyYBuaU
Keep in mind bucket has the basic ground rules for the songs but improvs alot so you get many versions of one song in my eyes is even better

Yes. And I envy you in that you have yet to even hear these amazing albums. Although, I also envy me in that I get to hear them whenever I want. Seriously, I\'d give you an order to get them in, but it is simply too hard. I will give you some very broad groupings:
Heavy: PG, CSC, IM, ILM, TEMAC, DC (actual lyrics you can sing along to; a somewhat different Buckethead experience for that reason), B2 (I think you said you already had this), I guess also CS1 and CS2 (a little more electronic sounding, although I am not really happy with that description, but I don\'t know what else to say. Very cool albums).
In between: Gorgone (sort of like Thanatopsis meets Island of Lost Minds)
Mellow(er): PO, CN, all of the Thanatopsis albums, Shin Terai, and Shine E
Ambient: DCK
ISOT gets its own class because it spans everything. There are simply too many tracks to label this any particular thing other than Buckethead experimenting and ripping out some truly unique music.
Honestly, I am not really happy with any descriptions I give Buckethead albums because they are so hard to describe.
Collect ALL the shards to form a wedge :)

Yes, yes you definitely should. That\'s more or less what I did, I looked through the list and bought what I thought looked the most interesting at the time, and then when I got some more money I bought what then looked the most interesting and so on. Then I just got whatever TDRS didn\'t have through places like Amazon, and some on eBay as well. Now, while not having a 100% complete BH collection it\'s still pretty damn big and I\'m very pleased with it.
Just do what I did and you should have a grand BH collection in no time. Your wallet will be coughing up blood, much like mine did, but you\'ll feel that it\'s all worth it in the end. 8)
