JOE SATRIANI - UNSTOPPABLE MOMENTUM

• joe satriani: unstoppable momentum
      (2013, cd, usa, epic)

"Unstoppable Momentum" reached the U.M.headquarters yesterday.
Instrumental, melodic rock guitar at its best.

Besides Joe's incredible guitar, you hear Mike Keneally's keyboard, Chris Chaney's bass and Vinnie Colaiuta's drums. That's one master guitar player and two former Zappa bandmembers !!
I expected the music to be great, but I was wrong. It's fantastic!

Special deal & package for "Unstoppable Momentum" included a signed CD, a t-shirt, a poster and an art book.
After postage and taxes the costs for whole package tripled, but still, it's worth it. It's  cool t-shirt and a fun art book.

JOE SATRIANI'S UNSTOPPABLE MOMENTUM

I'm listening to the download of the new Joe Satriani album at this very moment.

"Unstoppable Momentum".

Great stuff. Can't wait to get the physical copy of the album & to see him in concert in June.

NEW JOE SATRIANI ALBUM OUT ON MAY 7

Pre-order bonus track 'A Door Into Summer' arrived today.

Excellent !!

Here's the Youtube version:

TODD GRUBBS - TIME, SPACE AND THE ELECTRIC

• todd grubbs: time, space and the electric
      (2008, cd, usa, ls089365)

Todd Grubbs released his fourth solo album in 2008. "Time, Space and the Electric" is one of my favourite Todd Grubbs albums. This is instrumental guitar music at its best. The album is more rock oriented than his previous discs and it sounds great.
Data has been added to the United Mutations Archives.

Zappa and Mothers fans should know that Don Preston plays an outer space moog solo on 'You Are Here'.

Here's a sample:

TODD GRUBBS - TODDITIES VOLUME 1

• todd grubbs: toddities vol.1
      (2004, cd, usa, ls047365)

After his two first album, "Combination" (1994) and "Beautiful Device" (2004), Todd released a disc called "Toddities". It's a first in a series of albums that collects material that he doesn't see fit on his regular, normal albums.
The biggest part of "Toddities Volume 1" consists of songs from two cassette only E.P.'s., and there's also four new tunes.
I like it.

TODD GRUBBS - BEAUTIFUL DEVICE

• todd grubbs: beautiful device
      (2004, cd, usa, ls 046365)

Adding data to the United Mutations Archives, here's Todd Grubb's second album: " Beautiful Device". It's a private release from 2004 and it presents some fine instrumental melodic rock and fusion guitar tracks.
Fans of Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Jeff Beck and Frank Zappa should definitely check out Todd's music.
"Beautiful Device" is an excellent album.
Food for guitar freaks, and essential listening for melomaniacs.

TODD GRUBBS - COMBINATION

• todd grubbs: combination
      (1994, cd, usa, ls 945365)

I first heard about Todd Grubbs when Andrew Greenaway mentioned the artists that were participating on his "20 Extraordinary Renditions" Zappa tribute album. Must have been around 2006.
Todd Grubbs is a guitar player. Actually, he's a great guitar player. And he's also a guitar teacher and a composer. If you fancy instrumental guitar music à la Jeff Beck, Steve Vai and Joe Satriani, this will be most probably be right up your alley as well.
"Combination" was Todd's first album. It got released in 1994 and presents 11 impressive tracks.

Data added to the United Mutations Archives.
CD available from CDBaby.

JOE SATRIANI UPDATE

Joe Satriani's new album "Unstoppable Momentum" has been made available in various presale bundles, the most fascinating being a package that includes an art book.
