Paul Gilbert - Fuzz Universe

[ELVIS]

[Seshmeister]

Had to Google the release date, it sounds a lot older than 2010.

He's obviously ridiculously good and seems to be a nice fella too but I'd need to be in the right mood to eat a whole one.

That said I prefer him to Satriani.

[ELVIS]

He has some nice tones and cool effects going on in that song...

He's a guitarists guitarist for sure...

[DLR Bridge]

That song is about 3 minutes too long. He is fantastic though. I have his first few CDs with him singing on them. He's actually not a bad singer. I prefer those to his straight instrumental records.

Gotta lot of time for mr scarified , he is more than just technique .

Those first two Mr Big albums ripped. Cheesy ballads excused. I still have the Flexi disc of Paul and Billy and Pat playing 'Screaming blues o mania'.

[DLR Bridge]

I remember those things. I think I had that and one of Steve Vai's Blue Powder.

Love the 'place coin here' old simple tech fix!

The opening reminds me of the beginning of "Green Tinted Sixties Mind". To me, that ain't a bad place to start. Somewhat reminiscent of them Vinnie Moore albums that showed up in the record store every two or thee months or so back in the 1980s, yet with a tangible amount of more soul and gift applied. (Nothing against Moore, but listening to his albums was pretty much like eating macaroni and cheese every day for roughly two-three weeks.)

I have King Of Clubs and Beehive Live. Buncha good songs.

We went to a Gilbert clinic just after he left Mr. Big. He was onstage with two stacks and an ADAT for backing tracks, did a cool cover of Benny and the Jets. Probably some of that sweep picking, I don't remember.
