5150_Alien-I with you all the way. Joe is definitely relevant and current, but he also keeps getting better as the years go on. And he was amazing when he started. "Memories" is one of my favorite songs. While all of those guiarists get washed up and lose their energy, Joe is still up there giving it his all and putting his heart and soul into his music every night. We are lucky to live in the same lifetime as him.
Elton John was the very first performer I ever listened to. For the first three or four years that I listened to music in my life, I listened to Elton John. And I started listenening to Billy Joel last year and I love the entire "The Stranger" album.

oxley11 - Thanks!
RE: Billy Joel "The Stranger" was definitely my favorite album of his. "Glass Houses" has some really high highs though not as great an overall album.
Elton is timeless. Joe is definitely timeless as well. These guys are trend setters and their inspirations almost look so far inferior than they, themselves. i.e. Hendrix, Page - those guys were polar opposites but equally as well known. Hendrix was a master but Joe's taken it so much further, into the stratosphere!......and yet Page is somehow as well revered. The guy plays like, in the words of EVH, " 'a 2 year old with a broken hand' ". If you can't do it live, what do the 151 takes you took to get it right really mean? Joe, da Foot? One take. One take UNREHEARSED AND UNWRITTEN! (Down the Drain) That's a trend setter.
It's inspiring to me in other areas of my life than simply guitar.

I see the upcoming Chickenfoot DVD is going to be released on Blue Ray. That's sweet news. Watching Joe in the highest quality Hi Def will be awesome!

Its really interesting...
There have been 199,973 posts since this website started in '02.
There are currently 101,069 members of this website to this date.
Yet, only 15,846 have contributed to these almost 200,000 posts.
And now there are about 20-30 satriani.com veterans who I can think of who like to post something everyday and have well over 500-1000 posts.
Now, I can understand that you would join because your a Satch fan, but why wouldn't you like to get a little more involved in what the website has to offer.
I don't know??? Well, its just an interesting little bit of info.
Sorry if I bored anybody who decided to read this. I'm kinda bored myself right know. That's probably the only reason I figured this out.

Cheese -LOL. It's set for release on April 20 here and 26th in the UK I believe. Can't wait!
I read it on Blabbermouth. But I also saw mention of it on 3 or 4 other sites. Usually Blabbermouth is pretty spot on though.

EVH on Jimmy Page...."Plays guitar like a two year old with a broken hand"......Is that supposed to be a compliment ?
Maybe Eddie should remember that Mr.Page conquered his demons back when he formed The Firm with Paul Rodgers. We'll see you at the bar Ed !!

Man, what a crappy thing to say about Page. Eddie sure isn't the happiest guy in the world is he? He needs to find his center and get his peace.

Hi Joe,
Long time fan, back to your '82 Warefield show. For the last three years I've been hoping for a G3 with Vernon Reid on board. You did me one better as I saw you last Saturday night get out on stage with all of Living Colour. Great stuff! The whole show, but that especially. Everybody looked like they were having a blast. I had been wonder about Eric Johnson and how he ended up on a G3. Now I know why. My friend Jay says he hopes your laryngitis is better. Thanks for many years of joyous music. Good luck on the rest of the tour - Ed

Hey, Joe just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to shake me and my girlfriends hand at the Jimi Hendrix show in Mesa, AZ, especially considering all the crazy fans that swarmed around you after the show on the way to the parking lot.

Oh ok...well that part was left out of that particular post. I will agree that he was a stronger force in the studio. But it's still disrespectful nonetheless.

Got my new Bonamassa in the mail today. Just finished the first track, Steal Your Heart Away. Absolutely wonderful. I actually just re-started it, I'm not ready to move on! This song has a very great, upbeat and groovy feel. I bet it would sound great live. Kind of reminds me of Ballad of John Henry a bit with that kind of beat that you can get your head swingin' a bit when you listen to it! Great way to open the album!
I'll post more later........
P.S. I forgot to mention in my EH review the other night that it was Ernie Isley's birthday, and Joe actually opened his set by playing a very wah-infused happy birthday for him... It was pretty cool, wish I would have recorded it!
