5.0 out of 5 stars Absolute Must-Have!, January 22, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
I'm a huge fan of incredible guitar-oriented/instrumental rock and fusion. Think Dream Theater, Greg Howe, Michael Lee Firkins, Jason Becker...and absolutely Blues Saraceno. I've got all of this guy's recordings and they are all excellent. Most of all, Blues is a fantastic composer and arranger. He writes some of the the most grooving rhythms around and accents them them with amazingly inspired melodies. He's mastered tone and extracts fat, juicy and fiesty sounds from his guitar. The reviewer who said not to drive to this music is just about right--it is really captivating, fascinating stuff that has never gotten old or boring, even on the 200th play. If you already appreciate instrumental rock, jazz fusion or harder blues, you will LOVE this album. Truly a "can't go wrong" disc.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Most Understated Guitarist of our Time, August 27, 2001
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
Blues Saraceno is nothing short of a demi-god when it comes to musical genius. His approach to music in it's entirety is amazing to say the least. He has replaced my past favorites and now stands proud at the top. While he is fast as Vai and Satriani, his phrasing is majestic. His tone in unprecedented and unmatchable. Surprising to say, Saraceno cut all of these tracks in his own home studio at the ages of 16-23. You will understanding what I am talking about when you hear this albumn. BUY THIS CD!!! REVEL IN ITS BEAUTY!!! SPREAD THE WORD OF BLUES SARACENO!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Blues for tough guys, December 4, 2003

Ehy Blues, are you reading all these excellent reviews of your instrumental albums? We' re all amazed by your talent as a guitarist and as a instrumental rock fusion composer. C'mon dude, come back to instrumental music as soon as possible and release another marvel album just like the three you did in the past!

And you guys, you rock-fusion lovers don't hesitate at all. Buy all the music you can find from Blues. His music is a fantastic mix of energy and beauty. If you love Satriani, Hoey, Vai, Van Halen music, those things, you' ll love Blues.

I began listening to Saraceno's work back when it was orignally released by Guitar For the Practicing Musician. Over the years his music has matured and continues to offer a fresh approach to the guitar, his solid songwriting skills are evident in all his albums. I would recommend this CD to even the most discriminating listener.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blues Rocks!, December 16, 2000
By 
MR DAVID BRONS (Bradford, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
Blues Saraceno (yes this is his real name) is one of the most underated guitar instrumentalists ever. He combines great taste and maturity with high octane guitar pyrotecnics. Blues' playing swings and grooves better and harder than most of the guitar counterparts of his ilk. He mixes the raw blues style of Stevie Ray Vaughan, with the rock energy of Van Halen . A must-have for fans of tasteful rock guitar playing. I guarantee you will not be dissapointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blues at his best, June 1, 2001
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
Although still a young man, Blues has been around for some time and this disc catalogues some of his scorchin' best. This is serious, high-octane guitar work highlighting Blues along with a number of other top-shelf musicians. If you are into Vai, Satriani and the like, this disc is a "must have" for your collection. Solid arrangements, searing riffs and the crunch of an Ibanez set on 11 make this a fun disc to listen to again and again.

There should be a warning label cautioning drivers not to listen and drive. You'll get lost in the beat and end up with a ticket! FIVE STARS ISN'T ENOUGH !!
