Marty Friedman - Exhibit A Live in Europe

Exhibit A Live in Europe (2007)

After Marty Friedman’s successful ‘European Loudspeaker 2007’ tour, Mascot Records releases a live CD recorded on several locations during this tour. In spite of the nice cover (a nicely folded digipack), I wonder whether there will be many people who will enjoy this album. Of course it is difficult to ‘feel’ the contact between band and audience on an almost completely instrumental CD. Normally, it is the lead singer’s task to accomplish that and since there is no such person in Marty Friedman’s band, I guess we’ll have to do without it. What annoys me more is the fact that there are hardly any chats between the songs and that there is hardly any audience audible.
In conclusion the only thing left on this first ever live solo CD of Megadeth’s former axeman is a sort of compilation album, more than half filled with songs from Marty’s last two records (Music For Speeding’ and ‘Loudspeaker’). The sound is quite good although a bit dull every now and then. Friedman’s partners in crime are drummer Jeremy Colson (Steve Vai), Chris Catero on bass and guitarist Ron Jarzombek (Watchtower and Spastic Ink), who gets a lot of room for expression next to the Master himself. From ‘Dragon’s Kiss’, Marty’s best ever solo effort, we only get short fragments of the songs ‘Tears’ and ‘Anvils’, his last two albums are represented with a total of nine songs. Last song on the album is the Elvis classic ‘Hound Dog’ featuring Friedman himself on vocals. [lordsofmetal.nl]

Technique and influence

Satriani is widely recognized as a technically advanced rock guitarist, and has been described as a virtuoso. He has mastered many performance techniques on the instrument, including Legato, two-handed tapping and arpeggio tapping, sweep-picking, volume swells, harmonics, and extreme whammy bar effects. One of his trademark compositional traits is the use of Pitch Axis Theory, which he applies with a variety of modes. During fast passages, Joe favors a technique known as legato (achieved primarily through hammer-ons and pull-offs) which yields smooth and flowing runs. He is also adept at other speed-related techniques such as speed picking (a rapid form of alternate picking) and sweep picking, but does not often use them.

Satriani has received 14 Grammy nominations and has sold more than 10 million albums worldwide. Many of his fans and friends call him "Satch," short for "Satriani". Other guitarists sometimes refer to him as "Saint Joe"; there are numerous t-shirts to this effect.

An influential guitarist himself, Satriani has many influences, including jazz guitarists Django Reinhardt, Wes Montgomery, and Charlie Christian, and rock guitarists Jimi Hendrix and Ritchie Blackmore.

Joe_Satriani_1

Joseph "Satch" Satriani, Born July 15, 1956 in Westbury, New York US is an American guitarist and former instructor. He is heavily influence by Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck. Since 1988, Satriani has used his own signature guitar, the Ibanez JS Series, which is widely sold in store. He also has a signature amplifier, the Peavey JSX.In 1988, Satriani was recruited by the Rolling Stones' Mick Jagger as lead guitarist for Jagger's first solo tour. Later, in 1994, Satriani was also the lead guitarist for Deep Purple. Satriani has also worked with a wide range of guitarists from many styles, including Steve Vai, John Petrucci, Eric Jhonson, Larry LaLonde, Yngwie Malmsteen, Brian May, Patrick Rondat, Andy Timmons, Paul Gilbert and Robert Fripp through the annual G3 Jam Concert.

Biography and playing history
Satriani was inspired to play guitar at age 14 after learning of the death of Jimi Hendrix. He reportedly heard the news during a football training session, where he immediately confronted his coach and announced that he was quitting to become a guitarist.
In 1974, Satriani studied music with jazz guitarist Billy Bauer and with reclusive jazz pianist Lennie Tristano. The technically demanding Tristano greatly influenced Satriani's playing. Satriani also began teaching guitar, with his most notable student at the time being fellow Long Island native Steve Vai. While he was Vai's teacher, he was attending Five Town Collage for studies in music.
In 1978 Satriani moved to Berkeley, California to pursue a music career. Not long after his arrival he resumed teaching. His students included Kirk Hammett (Metallica), David Bryson (Counting Crows), Kevin Cadogan (Third Eye Blind), Larry LaLonde (Primus, Possessed), Alex Skolnick (Testament), Rick Hunolt (Exodus), Phil Kettner ( Laaz Rockit), Geoff Tyson (T-Ride), Charlie Hunter, Jude Gold, and Adam Johnson (Ylond in Blue Galaxies).
When his friend and former student Steve Vai gained fame playing with David Lee Roth in 1986, Vai raved about Satriani in several interviews with guitar magazines. In 1987, Satriani's second album "Surfing with the alien" produced popular radio hits and was the first all-instrumental release to chart so highly in many years. In 1988 Satriani helped produce the EP The Eyes Of Horror for the death metal band Possessed.
In 1989, Satriani released the album "Flying in a Blue Dream". The album sold well. "One Big Rush" was featured on the soundtrack to the Cameron Crowe movie Say Anything. "The Forgotten Part II" was featured on a Labatt Blue commercial in Canada in 1993. "Big Bad Moon", one of Satriani's few songs to feature his vocals, was a minor hit in late 1989.
In 1992, Satriani released "The Extremist", his most critically acclaimed and commercially successful album to date. Radio stations across the country were quick to pick up on "Summer Song", while "Cryin'" , "Friends" and the title track were regional hits.
In late 1993, Satriani joined Deep Purple as a short-term replacement for departed guitarist Ritchie Blackmore during the band's Japanese tour. The concerts were such a success that Satriani was asked to join the band permanently, but he declined, having just signed a multi-album solo deal with Sony, so Steve Morse took the guitarist slot in Deep Purple.
In 1996, he formed G3, a concert tour featuring three instrumental rock guitarists – originally Satriani, Vai and Eric Johnson. The G3 tour has continued periodically since its inaugural version, where Satriani is the only permanent member, featured with a floating second and third member, including among others Eric Jhonson, Yngwie Malmsteen, John Petrucci, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Robert Fripp, Andy Timmons, Uli Jon Roth, Michael Schenker, Adrian Legg and Paul Gilbert.
In 1998 Satriani recorded and released Crystal Planet, which went back to a sound more reminiscent of his late '80s work. Planet was followed up with Engine of Creation, one of his more experimental works featuring the 'Electronica' genre of music. During the subsequent tour, a pair of shows at the Fillmore in San Francisco were recorded in December 2000 and released as Live in San Francisco, a two-disc live album and DVD.
Over the next several years, Satriani regularly recorded and released new music, including Strange Beatiful Music in 2002 and Is There Love In Space? in 2004.
In 2006 Satriani recorded and released "Super Colossal" and "Satriani Live!", another two-disc live album and DVD recorded May 3, 2006 at the Grove in Anaheim, CA.
On August 7, 2007 Epic/Legacy Recordings re-released "Surfing with the Alien" to celebrate the 20th anniversary of its release. This was a two-disc set that includes a remastered album and a DVD of a previously never-before-seen live show filmed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1988.
Satriani's newest album, titled Professor Satchafunkilus and the Musterion of Rock, was released on April 1, 2008.
It was revealed on May 29, 2008 that Satriani is involved in a new hard rock project with former Van Halen members Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith. The band, which will feature Hagar on vocals, Satriani on guitar, Anthony on bass and Smith on drums, is tentatively called "Chickenfoot" and is currently writing material and recording their debut album which is due out in 2009.
On November 22, 2008 Satriani shared the stage with amateur guitarist, Funtwo , during a performance for YouTube Live.[Wikipedia.org]
