Full disclosure, I'm not really a music connoisseur. In fact, I know so little about instruments I might not even have the correct name of the instrument that I'm trying to think of. I'm sure there are THOUSANDS of songs out there that may be common knowledge to everyone that I just haven't heard before. Sorry. Anyways...I just absolutely have a soft spot for this instrument. As a starting point, some of the songs (or in some cases, just a little solo type thing) in particular that I can't get enough of include:

Aint wasting time no more- ABB
done somebody wrong- ABB
Fat old sun- Floyd LINK
wots, uh..the deal- Floyd LINK

I know that's a very short list but it's a starting point. Can someone recommend me some songs that I should check out that have a great slide invovled? IDGAS about genre either, I just love the sound of the instrument and would like to hear some more that I haven't been exposed to yet, although I do lean a bit towards classic rock. Thanks!

Gary Moore was pretty good with a slide. He really made his guitar cry.

I'm not a huge slide guy, but:

RHCP - Scar Tissue...Fruscante keeps it pretty real

Joe Satriani - The Phone Call...great solo

Jackson Browne - Farther On...David Lindley might be my favorite slide player. This song is absurdly good.
