Okay so finally i'm posting my 200th link...i'm really grateful for all the support from all the guitarists that have been visiting my blog. As the 200th post,i'm posting The Satch Tapes as this video is very close to my heart..whether Satch likes this term or not but he really is a "Guitar God"..i don't give a damn about what people say but nobody is more musical than Satch at that speed. When Joe Satriani's Surfing With The Alien hit the street in 1987, people took the record to heart. The unknown artist on the then underground Relativity label struck the right chord with music fans around the world with his powerful signature style. A baffled and astonished record industry could only step back and watch in amazement as Surfing With The Alien went on to defy traditional instrumental rock limitations to become a multi-million selling GRAMMY-nominated critical tour de force. Joe was touted as the soft-spoken maverick, a rock and roll guitar-slinger who proved there was an audience for music that didn't fit into tidy categories and opened the door for the slew of rock instrumentalists who have since followed his path.As with any overnight success story, there's more sweetness and sweat than meets the eye. This video, The Satch Tapes, explores Joe's up-and-coming days and provides a look into the development of a committed artist. While Joe talks candidly about the ups and downs of "making it" in the music business, The Satch Tapes presents a rare opportunity to get to know the reserved artist through his anecdotes on life and music. Get the real scoop from some of Joe's closest friends, including his high school pal and former student Steve Vai and legendary axeman Nigel Tufnel of Spinal Tap. In essence, it's his passionate approach to making music which has garnered him the widespread respect and admiration of fans, critics and fellow musicians alike. Joe Satriani, world class guitar player and music talent of the highest order...ROCK ON!!!!
