Okay, go to www.guitar10.tk and you will find video clips of Malmsteen and Romeo.

Dear Symbad, when I say Uncle Moe's space ranch, what comes to your mind?

So Vai could read and perform the guitar scores that Zappa wrote but couldn't play them. Those who listen closely to Vai will notice the significant influence of Zappa in his music, especially in the album Flexable and Flexable leftovers.

Great Symbad. An album to listen to during restless summer nights.

Let's also keep in mind that the "tamarragine" present in this album is something requested by the fans of the aforementioned guitarists. A Malmsteen who doesn't throw his guitar in the air or a Vai who doesn’t play with a monstrous instrument would likely be booed by the many who gathered to witness a bit of circus activity. However, these gentlemen are not just flashy; they have written important pages in instrumental hard rock.
I like to define Satriani as the guitarist for everyone; let's remember that his early albums had a reach and accessibility that went well beyond guitar enthusiasts, and the fact that his compositions have often been used for advertising jingles or as background music for television services clearly indicates the artist's attitude aimed at the masses and not just a select few.
Vai was a disciple of Zappa and, after that, we could add nothing more; however, he has gifted instrumental music with unforgettable compositions, rich in technique but also in taste. He often falls into excess, especially visually, but he has a unique approach to the instrument in the guitarist landscape.
As for Malmsteen, let’s remember that his albums are fundamentally hard rock, and the instrumental tracks are only a small part. Naturally, his solos are always "exaggerated," but albums like Trilogy, Odyssey, and Marching Out are universally recognized hard rock masterpieces. The real "show-offs" are others: Cooley, Angelo...

Let's say that Players is more "clean" compared to the tribaltech sounds and more oriented towards a "normal" fusion. I recall some comments I read online that considered Tribal Tech as the meeting point between Weather Report and Primus; maybe it's a bold statement, but thinking about it...

The guitar with your teeth or behind your back or, perhaps, blindfolded, is something that anyone can do with a bit of practice. Playing for real is quite different...

My "uncomfortable" reviews stay on the front page for just a couple of minutes. I won't add anything else; let those who have ears understand...

Good review. If I'm not mistaken, he had a concert in Milan some time ago; anyway, he's perhaps one of the best old-school guitarists.

Who made who is indeed a collection that contains, among other things, the compositional peaks of Fly on the wall, namely Sink the pink and Shake your foundations. Since you care about being precise...
