Professor Satchafunkilus and the Musterion of Rock

Don't know, nor do I care what others say here because opinions are entirely subjective, mine included. One word should suffice when it comes to this musician: virtuoso. Consider the definition: "a musician who shows exceptional ability, technique, or artistry." That said, you'd get your money's worth out of this album with one song: "Revelation". All the crappy, pimply, neo-rock vampire adjectives aside, this man is as good on the guitar as McCartney is on the bass, and that's saying something. If you don't buy the CD (which would be a shame), at least buy the single. You'll wear out your Ipod listening.

I was skeptical about buying this CD after reading some of the negative reviews. I was blown away! This CD is awesome. Why the criticism? This is a solid CD from start to finish. I do not hear any filler. I had the chance to see him live a couple of weeks ago. Joe and his band put on a fantastic show. Keep up the great work guys!

Super Collosal is still my favorite, but I anxiously await every new CD by Satch. He's always experimenting with new styles, and his playing on this one is a smooth, edgy, and fluid as any. They may not be as memorable as some of his greatest stuff, but by the second listen the guy just brings a smile to your face the way he rips the guitar to shreds.

I'm actually saddened to see anything in the way of the disappointment of others in reference to this album.
This immediately became one of my favorites at first listen.
I really feel Joe put aside his expectancy of others and just let his inspiration flow for this one.
I was never at any point bored or waiting to get through a song to hear what the next track might offer as I have been in a couple previous albums.
Music is a language of the soul, you either understand it or you don't, you either connect with it or you don't.
There was reference made in comparison to earlier albums that for myself I could not agree with. The compared albums I didn't connect with as I did this one. This album is a language I understand and an inspiration of "soul groove" for me.
"Thank you Joe" Rock on,,,,,,,,,,,,

I believe Satriani is a great guitar player, however most of this cd sounds like a reminiscence of another great... Check Jeff Beck's work.
