What was the best Tele CD of 2005?

I haven't heard enough new releases to have a well-informed opinion. I'm hoping to get some suggestions on good new releases to pick up.

Yoakam's "Blame the Vain" and Paisley's "Time Well Wasted" have to be up there.

I love Paisley, but Gattis' playing on Blame the Vain was just so fresh and tasteful.

Time Well Wasted. What a fantastic album.

I'm going with "A Bigger Bang" by The Rolling Stones. Keef and his open G tuned Teles rock, and as usual his tones are superb! A runner up for me would be Bruce's "Devil's And Dust". Always love Bruce's Tele tones!

I'll go with...

Paisley's "Time Well Wasted"

second

Marty Stuart & the Fabulous Superlative's "Soul's Chapel"

third

Yoakam's "Blame the Vain"...songs were great, but I missed Pete Anderson.

B****** Sons of Johnny Cash - Mile Markers. The lead guitarist plays slide like Sonny Landreth, combining the slide with fretted notes, which was impressive. Outstanding tone, and musicianship, and a great set of songs!

Disc one of Bill Frisell's "East/ West".
