PERPETUAL BURN is a Classic Instrumental Shred Guitar release that still has yet to be topped. Jason's best release. Melodic Chops, great songwriting , etc. If you are a fan of this Style, also check out these shred cd releases on AMAZON - Tony Macalpine - " Maximum Security " - Greg Howe " GREG HOWE " - Rob Johnson " SHREDWORX " - Joey Tafolla - " Out Of The Sun "
These songs are amazing in my personal oppinion this is the best instramental album ever made. Great album from an amazing guitar player. I couldn't write enough about this one (Amazon won't let me). Youtube Altitudes and you'lle see why. This guy should be a lot more famous than he is.
First i must say something about Yngwie. Air, in my opinion, will go down as a piece that will be with the likes of the othe rgreat composers. but w/e that does not matter and has no bearing on this amazing piece of MUSIC.
everyone on this review board has comments and comparssions about yngwie and his style and how becker is his only match. Songs that this is prevalent on is Mabel's Fatal FAble, Dweller in the Cellar, Temple of the Absurd and Eleven Blue Egyptians. This album has nothing to do with.
What makes this album stand out is his ability to feel the harmonic minor scale, were as most players force it out. Who cares. they are both in it to make beautiful shred music so why put them in a battle and most of u seem to forget that Becker composed these songs through the ages fo 16-18 as oppose to Yngwie who was in his 20s.
Emotional songs that stick out to me are Altitudes (this song will give you goosebumps), Air and Opus Pocus. Im not a big fan of the song Perpetual Burn but the album is a must ahve for any aspiring guitarist and a good ad to your cd collection.
If you're into shredding and flashy eighties guitar playing you must know this album. If you like metal and fast guitar solos you'll love this album. This album has great great songs and great guitar work. Highly technical guitar playing from one of the greatest shredders. It's recommended for all shredders and friends of eighties fast guitar music. It's a classic in it's own genre.
Who needs a song by song review by some schlep. If you like or appreciate rock guitar, this is a must have. That always kills me. Bottom line, this is guitar playing at a talent level most will never reach or even relate to. Very underrated guitar player, cruelly dealt a bad hand while in his prime. Very deserving of your purchase.
