great guitarist can be many things. He can be a rhythm guitarist who just writes
ridiculously catchy hooks. Or he can be a lead guitarist and solo with blazing
speed and tripping harmonics. Eric Mantel tries his hand at both with an album of
stellar guitarmanship and tight studio session players who help him out. Punchy
progressive rock with songs of jazz fusion, rock, and jazzy blues rock pepper the
album.
