Have you heard Zakk Wylde's "Book Of Shadows"?  If you like "Hangover Music" well enough to put it on that list you should check it out. 

It's a similiar style, but in my opinion at least is way better.  Hangover Music is still awesome though.

And Nick Cave...  Nice.

Yeah, I love Zakk's Book of Shadows album, too. He's an awesome player, both on acoustic and electric guitar.

I can't believe Billy Joel, Bob Seger, or Bruce Springsteen is still no were to be seen.

All three of those artists are the type where I don't really favor specific albums, but only love particular songs. I would also place artists such as John Mellencamp, Rod Stewart, the Stones,etc. in that category.

Joel's GH double album from the early 80s is phenomenal. Seger's Shame on the Moon is one of my favorite 80's songs, but there's no way in hell that album would ever make a list of mine.
