Joe Satriani Review of "Strange Beautiful Music" @ iTunes By: Robert Silverstein nstrumental rock guitar great Joe Satriani breaks new ground on his eighth solo album. Sure, the rock solid, riff-saturated guitar shredder sounds are still there, but overall Strange Beautiful Music marks a new direction for the guitarist. According to Joe, "I was looking to bring something new and different to the table", and the outcome is a more sensitized Satriani sound-the harder edges balanced with a new depth of feeling and accessibility. Satch receives outstanding support from noted players like Matt Bissonette (bass) and Jeff Campitelli (drums) while King Crimson guitar icon Robert Fripp lends a hand on Joe's stellar version of the Santo & Johnny classic "Sleepwalk". © Robert Silverstein / 20th Century Guitar Magazine Oriental Melody Belly Dancer Starry Night Chords Of Life Mind Storm
