Joe Satriani

Okay, all you Satch fans who've been begging me for trades, pipe down! I am NOT changing my tack and becoming a Joe Satriani fan, all of a sudden. All that happened was, I borrowed a bunch of my brother's rap CD's to make copies of, and decided, purely as an afterthought, to add this one as well. That's it.

Hmm...a couple of nice instrumentals, esp. the title track and "One Big Rush", and one surprisingly good vocal track ("Ride") -- but the rest is just...ehh, weird. I guess no one can accuse Satch of not trying out more unusual styles! I don't even know how to describe some of the music here, except that's not winning me over. I even copied the artwork (did a lame-ass job, too) and used my last gay-colored blue jewelcase and stuck it on my wall with the rest of my CDs, where it will probably remain, gathering dust, forever.
