Uli Jon Roth's 1979 album, entitled Earthquake (which, along with Fire Wind, were his first two releases after leaving the Scorpions), is very much Jimi Hendrix influenced (in fact, the album is dedicated to the Spirit Of Jimi Hendorx) with many strong numbers. Strong tracks include "Burning Wheels Turning" and "Still So Many Lives Away", which have the most fantastic guitar solos, and perhaps one of Uli's most famous solo. Another good song is the opening track, "Electric Sun", in which Uli welcomes the world to the Electric Sun band/concept with a one minute opening guitar salvo/solo that will leave guitar fans breathless. The CD is worth a buy for the two instrumental tracks alone - the very brief but cool "Winterdays" and the closing title track, a ten minute plus opus of Strat magic, with its well thought out arrangement and briliant classical workouts, weaving what would become Roth's trademark sonic tapestry Neo-Classical Metal/Hard Rock, total running time, 39:23 - Uli Jon Roth @ iTunes!
