Ok, so it's way more than 5.
I really believe that there are 5... must have albums being necessary to learn how to play country guitar properly.
That being said, there are a million things in between. That could be altering my ideas.
I could have easily added a Vince Gill, album or Ricky Skaggs album. As they are just as important in my book.
With that being said, one of the albums has Ricky Skaggs. Tony Brown Emery Gordy Jr. Albert Lee. And other amazing musicians playing on it, including Rodney Crowell.
And shortly after this album came out, she had a couple other crazy. Good guitar players, including Vince Gill on her Angel Band album. And prior to Albert Lee joining the band she had the unbelievable, James Burton, who was everybody's hero.

I think it's a real adult education for excellent player like yourself, to list all the stuff you listened to that have made you the musician you are. I never stop learning, or being influenced by amazing music & musicians. Oh yeah, and you make excellent customised guitars as well, I know, you made mine!

There are more I really should add. Shelby Lynn Tough All Over really taught me to listen to every production nuance. Bob Montgomery produced an absolute masterpiece there. Brandy Clark 12 Stories is probably the most sonically perfect record I've ever heard. And my buddy Dave Brainerd produced that one. Besides. Brandy is a fellow Washingtonian. I grew up in WA State. There's something in the water up there... my friend James Otto is from tri cities. And he's a great writer and singer too. He wrote In Color with Jamey Johnson. 12 Stories... man. The writing, the production the playing... it's perfect.

Thanks for these, great picks for sure. Did Vince Gill play any solos on that Emmylou Angel Band album? His solos are almost a bit rare - even on his own records there might only be a couple, but they'd be unreal... Just checked Brent's solo on that Danni Leigh Jukebox tune, that's a ripper for sure. Btw, loved your version of Messin' With the Kid, and that whole CD, and Telethon too, gotta dig those out for another spin!

I think Vince played mandolin on that album. I'll have to dig it back out. All my Emmylou is vinyl. But Vince's early stuff was highly influential. The Way Back Home album... I play the song Let's Do Somethin' almost post every gig. He's playing everything, dobro, mandolin the guitars. It's a killer album. All his early stuff like Oklahoma Borderline, Victim of life's circumstances, Turn Me Loose record... I love Party's early solo stuff too. Busy Bee Cafe, and Matches... that Matches record is crazy good. I could list 100 more.
