Jordan is a musical composition by American musician Buckethead. Originally featured as a playable track on the 2006 music video game Guitar Hero II, Jordan was officially released as a downloadable single via iTunes on August 18, 2009.
Prior to the inclusion of a studio version of Jordan on Guitar Hero II, the instrumtal was performed live by Buckethead at a number of shows. While performing the track, Buckethead would omit the guitar solos and interpolate another song (oft Post Office Buddy from Giant Robot), a series of songs or an improvisation. One such early live version was released as Vertebrae on the Praxis live album Tnessee 2004 in 2007. Since the release of the studio version, Buckethead has oft included the solo in his live performances of Jordan.
An alternate version of Jordan was re-created specifically for the video game Guitar Hero II. It is considered one of the most difficult tracks to play in the series on Expert difficulty,

Due to the complexity of its guitar solos, particularly the Guitar Solo B and Guitar Solo C sections. On the Xbox 360 version, the Kick the Bucket Award is an achievemt worth 30 gamerscore, and is awarded for completing Jordan on Expert difficulty.
The fastest tapping portions of the solo reach approximately 15.47 notes per second (32nd-notes @ 116 BPM in a 4/4 meter). In this part of the solo, Buckethead frets the notes using only his left hand, instead of resorting to two-handed tapping.
The picking portion of the solo reaches a speed of 11.6 notes per second (16th-note triplets @ 116 BPM in a 4/4 meter).

The Guitar Hero series' residt guitarist Marcus Hderson stated that Buckethead feels Jordan to be one of the best things he has ever recorded.
