Turn Of My Century
Our Price: $14.00
(Price Includes U.S. shipping)
More Info
Greek keyboardist/guitarist extraordinaire Bob Katsionis sets the tone on the inside of the Turn Of My Century CD with, "Speed Kills...Warp Speed Rules!" Then, Katsionis proceeds to blow your face off on both keyboards and guitar over the seventeen neo-classical and progressive instrumental tracks. His music features inspired melodies along with dreamy solos and oriental dances - all in a progressive/fusion "out-in-space" mood. Katsionis is known as THE keyboard player in Greece, but his facility on guitar will interest fans of the Guitar Nine site - this guy rocks with the best of them. He's also got no problem pumping blazing keyboard runs through a wah-wah pedal, which adds an even more guitaristic feeling to the proceedings. Turn Of My Century - get it while it's hot! Instrumental Guitar, total running time, 58:06

'Reasons For A Decade'
Review Featured In Quintessence, January, 2002
By: Wayne Klinger
n an earlier review we spoke of Kevin Ferguson doing the Classical improv music to guitar; Chris Steberl and John Homan do this as well, making up Project: Alcazar. These are revamped versions of Mozart, Vivaldi and Mussorgsky on this 7-track CD from this first U.S. band I know of on Lion Music coming out of Ohio. Now, this overall is still very "Metal" and some fast guitar soloing in the Stump, Yngwie and Fredianelli (Apocrypha to refresh your memories) realm with that added Classical approach but is a great release and one of my top 10 for the year. Rob Johnson has found some competition finally in Ohio!
