Album Description
Joe Satriani is the guitar. Since the late eighties, the self-taught, multi platinum (over 7 million units sold worldwide) virtuoso has been winning over fans and musicians alike with his ground-breaking style. He has been around the world several times on tours of his own as well as tours with Mick Jagger, Deep Purple, and hugely successful G3 summer tours (and albums) with fellow guitar legends Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, and Kenny Wayne Shepherd.
He has been both artist and teacher, instructing such famous pupils as Steve Vai, Metallica's Kirk Hammett, Counting Crow's David Bryson, and jazz fusionist Charlie Hunter. On his new studio album Professor Satchafunkilus And The Musterion of Rock, Joe not only delivers one of the most anthemic songs of his career ("I Just Wanna Rock"), but also for the first time ever on a Satch album he plays acoustic guitar ("Andalucia"). As always, Joe continues to blaze new trails with his guitar and leave the others in the dust...

Very good. But not air guitar material,
This review is from: Professor Satchafunkilus and the Musterion of Rock (Audio CD)
Quite a complex work with some classic Spanish guitar work translated into electric style, a clear Zappa inspired track or two, some Jazz fusion, the odd bit of retro funk and methinks a touch of Django Reinhardt.As a result a great many people will hate it because it is not what they immediately recognise as a "Satch" album and it requires listening to properly. The guy has clearly got to a point where he is doing what interests him. The "I Wanna Rock" track is actually wholly out of place reeks of having been chucked into a much more mature, complex and contemplative work in order to provide something, anything, for many of his fans to hang on to. It is actually the weakest track of the lot but the most commercial. Overall a very good effort but one that might not have wide appeal.

There is no point comparing Joe Satriani albums because each one has a slightly different flavour.If all his albums were the same as Flying in a Blue Dream then people would be grumbling that he should be producing something different. Personally I think this is another cracking album from one of the worlds finest guitartists!

I've been a fan since 'Surfing with the alien ' and his albums are always enjoyable and usually I listen a couple of times on my MP3 player before deleting . This one however is staying on along with 'Surfing' . It may just be me but I really enjoy this one and it gets better each time I listen . A nicely balanced collection .
