This review is from: One Hour Talisman (Audio CD)

I have been playing guitar for 23 years and love santana, and john Mclaughlin etc. Anthony Curtis is my new favorite guitarist. so sensitive and fast beyond belief!!! Does anyone know of other recordings of his and BOOM?

5.0 out of 5 stars Alright! Great like Pat Martino, Sonny Sharrock, and Crisom,, August 30, 1999

Boom is the first band I have heard where a guitar god subordinates his outrageous chops for the overall good of the band. Its similar to Sonny Sharrock meets Pat Martino meets Cecil Taylor. This album received billboards progressive album of the year and I see why. Check it out !

This review is from: One Hour Talisman (Audio CD)

I recently read about BOOM in Billboard magazine --they gave "one Hour Talisman" best progressive album of the year--so I checked it out though it was very complex the guitar playing in particular was really great. I have their first cd ..SQUINT which I like even better cause on that disc the guitrist anthony curtis really unleashes his power and chops. But hey it is great anyway i advise them to return to the earlier type of stuff though.
