4.0 out of 5 stars
His best work--same vein as Paul Gilbert,
By Allister Fiend (Baltimore, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Confessions (Audio CD)
Dweezil is a monster on the guitar, and this album is his best work yet. He deserves to be ranked right up there with guys like Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, and Zakk Wylde, but somehow Dweezil's guitar playing has gone more or less overlooked. (So has his music career, for the most part.)
Nuno Bettencourt (formerly of Extreme) produced this disc and even lends his vocals to one song "The Kiss," as well as some spoken parts here & there. The Zappa humor is there in most of the lyrics, but it's the guitar playing that makes me listen to this one again & again. Dweezil's vocals are an acquired taste, but if you're into 80's guitar rock, this is a good buy.

80's Guitar Shredding with humor and talent,
By
This review is from: Confessions (Audio CD)
People need to remember - this was cut in 1991. The 80s influence is all over it (in a good way). If you love the 80s style guitar work - this is must have. Nuno is totally under-rated and does an awesome job helping out here. Zakk Wylde in his early, early days. Some cutting lyrics. It is a 4 1/2 star CD... not perfect but very enjoyable. Dweezil is (was?) a very talented player - not sure what happened to him.

Not too many albums more fun than this,

This review is from: Confessions (Audio CD)
I'm not going to try to tell you Dweezil is up there with the greatist guitarists of all time, but he does play a great guitar on this album. He has a unique sound/tone to his playing and he rarely uses 4/4 time which makes his sound even more distinct. The beauty of his music, though, is his use of humor throughout his music. I can't think of many more albums I enjoy listening to more than this one. I particualry enjoy "Confessions of a Deprived Youth" but those are my '80s roots talking. the guest guitarists are phenomenol and really add to the music. It's just a really fun album to listen to.
