Featuring 11 tracks in the instrumental guitar fusion tradition, Waldon Reed Jr.'s CD, Resonance Reconnaissance goes all out with the intent to challenge, to push the envelope, and to less than gently nudge the listener away from comfort zones. Most of the recording features Reed's searing, soaring, rip-roaring guitar pyrotechnics grafted on to a rock solid bed of pumping bass lines (courtesy of Paul Laginess) and energized drumming from Norm Euker. Devotees of Scott Henderson's work with Tribal Tech and Larry Carlton's solo output will immediately tune into Reed's guitar "voice" -- witness the solo forays on "5 For 4" and "Sin Denial" for some prime examples. If you're a fan of flashy guitar, and fresh, edgy, original material, check out the happenings on Resonance Reconnaissance. Instrumental Guitar (Electric/Fusion/Progressive), total running time, 49.25
