cheese101 - I contacted HELP and Jim from topspin media sent me another link. I have heard the album through full, twice now >=:) *happy happy joy! joy!*

It's funny to get on here and see wolf2 still posting crazy shiat almost 20 years later!

If michelle is still around ... HI MICHELLE!!!

I've moved from Arkansas to Colorado to Alaska. Playing and writing a lot of music these days. Loving life. I've gotten heavily into Kings of Leon and Ed Sheeran, but Joe still has the #1 spot on my favorites list.

Just wanted to get on and say how much I love the new album. It's definitely got my attention, way more than the previous two albums. Favorite song after about 10 listens: Cataclysmic. San Francisco Blue is currently a close 2nd.

Keep up the good work Joe! Hope you are well and loving every minute of this life.

Have played the whole album today on iTunes through decent headphones.

Once again a fabulous collection of masterpieces.

So much talent and I get to see you in Portsmouth UK in November.

I can't wait.

To Iloveguitars:

Just because I may not play does not take away my right to an opinion, especially when it concerns what MY PERSONAL TASTES are. The fact that he can do something I cannot is why I have been a fan for so long. For me , Joe's older stuff is what I hold near and dear, and after 20-25 years it still holds up. An awful lot of his newer stuff....eh, I have to pick and choose. I can still listen to "War", loud, daily, and I guess I'm waiting for him to outdo that freakin' masterpiece!

That being said, I still stand by my opinion of Unstoppable Momentum. An Orwellian title. I can listen to what I like from that album in 15 minutes or less.

THAT being said, I can be an adult and amend my opinion on the new album. I forget that it takes a few listens to digest the material on a new album. After further digestion I have concluded that I do quite LIKE most of the album; 9/15 to be exact. The ones I like get better with each taste. The ones I don't like, do not. That simple.

Opinions Dude, and when it comes to music it is highly subjective. I know I offended your hero, but don't you think that for 20 some odd years maybe I saw Joe the same way, but lately he dropped a couple stinkers? I don't just blindly accept every thing that comes from him. Just because he's talented and gifted doesn't mean I have to LIKE it all. The red self-titled album; well done if you like blues; me, not. EOC; techno, not a favorite of ANYONE I know that likes Joe. SBM; it literally gives me a headache for some reason. Bottom line , Joe is only a human.

Pip, i do so love mah kitties. Cats are good people! I'm soo wanting another kitten, but three kitties make enough cat hair for this house. lol! Howz u?

Chee, I've listened to it in bits and pieces over the past few days. Hands down my fave is Butterfly & Zebra. Like I said, it must be the mood I'm in.

PeaceDeb, what in thee hell, man! Don't go doing stuff like that! You can stub your toe if you want attention! Seriously though, I hope you're on the mend and feeling better! xoxo

Toosh! As always, best withes to your daughter and your family.

XROB, robbiebob, how the hell are ya man! Alaska, for realz? From the hottest place to the coldest. What's up with that?

Glad to FINALLY see some familiar faces! It would be great if we could get the family back up in here! . . As for me, I'm always checking in, but there's never much action...except Wolf. lol! Going through some stuff right now myself. My niece was killed in June, and they want to charge her killer with a misdemeanor. Anyone else who would have done the same thing he did would have been locked up immediately. It's really true. It's all about who ya know.It ain't over till it's over. My family will never be the same. As for me personally, my kneecaps have seemed to forget where they live and keep moving to placed they're not supposed to be. I'm having a knee scope done Thursday to clean out a torn lateral meniscus and cut something else thats making my knee cap go the wrong way. My other knee is just being a selfish bitch and don't want to be left out of all the fun, so it decided to dislocate and stay that way for 8 hours Wed. night. The knee that I'm having surgery on was dislocated for a day and a half. Meniscus cartilage is getting in the way and holding them out of place. Talk about good times! Hell yeah! They're ripping through here like mad. All within the span of a month. When shit goes sideways, it goes sideways!

Well I do quite love Engines of Creation.... but then again.... every once in a while I'm in the mood for Wood Stock Jam too. :)

Still have not given Shockwave Supernova a proper listen I-pod would not sync but finally figured that out so a listen is next on the agenda

Michelle- Aww thanx <3 . I think I am going to be okay hit me out of left field...strange thing was thru the whole thing I was like ...calm. No impending dooom feeling... no chest pain just a little nagging pain behind my left shoulder blade & extreme exhaustion . I thank God I went to the hospital instead of home to bed. Yeah glad to be here... really really glad.

Peace Lilly - my word, sorry to hear that. Hope you're feeling much better and they have a program to get you back in tip top in no time. Lots of beautiful mellow tunes on the new album should help

Cheers Conch

Hope you manage to get your knees sorted out! How can you have a knees up when they've got a mind of their own?

Toosh, knees up ain't the problem. lol!

Pip, yep, the last one is 3 years old. Better get in the loop there, son! :-)

PeaceDeb, very glad you had the sense to go to the hospital. Angels guided you that day for sure.

my fellow T2Jers, is 'Butterfly and Zebra' a lyric from 'Little Wing' by Hendrix? I think it is... doesn't Jimmy go on to sing 'moon beam and fairy tales, gone with the wind'

am I correct??

BigBunny, glad to hear you got your problem solved and are happily listening!! Joe continues to amaze eh? And what's a little cat hair amongst friends, lol!

Peace Lily Deb, Geez Loueeze, so sorry for what happened, but glad to hear it was sorta "mild", if those things ever are and that you went right to the hospital. I hope you are well on your way to getting and feeling better and I agree....stress is a huge factor, so follow yer name and peace out! Hugs!

Cappy, glad to hear your daughter is doing "okay", though I bet everyone keeps a close watch on her...how could you help that! I hear that grandkids are your reward for parenthood, lol! I know that *I* was a delightful grandchild, never gave my gramma a second of trouble!! *looks right, looks left, coughs* so yeah....and thanks for the good wishes for Chris too, he's hanging in. He has developed a heart condition, so we are in the process of testing and finding more out about that, but otherwise....life goes on.

Go4itnaturalpath I agree. I've often talked with my son and compared Joe and his ability to compose music to that of Mozart. Aren't we lucky to be alive at the same time to enjoy his massive talent!!

Chelle, u know u always have my virtual hugs and good vibes through the cosmos....u must take care of yerself missie, especially with all that has happened lately. Beeg hugs! Oh, and you know you can NEVER have too many kitties! Besides, yer boys are so mellow, isn't it about time to get a youngster up in there to shake things up? :D

hello MR. JOE SATRINI FANTASTIC YOU NEW ALBUM THANK YOU ..!!! MY QUESTION I CAN ' T WAIT TO THE NORTH AMERICAN TOUR 2016 YOU BACK ...?

Michelle!! Was so happy to see your post! But, damn. Those knees! Hope they get back to working order ASAP.

I could not possibly be happier to be out of Arkansas! I loved Colorado, but Alaska is truly amazing. The summer is crazy, all light all the time - and about 70 degrees! And if you like to ski (like me) then it's year-round good times. I'm home!!

We should have an un-list reunion one day. I'll make more T-Shirts!!

BTW, Joe, Crazy Joey was rocking my freaking ears off this morning! LOVE IT!!

Shockwave Supernova 3rd listening today

And yes, I imagine "Butterfly and Zebra" is another tribute to Joe's guitar hero, Jimi
