Greg Howe's highly technical, yet very melodic, guitar style has established him as one of the most innovative guitar instrumentalists of our time and a true guitarist s guitarist. On Sound Proof , Greg has assembled a hot band that has gelled together to create a freshly unified sound. This record is a veritable smorgasbord of hot chops as each player never fails to impress on these awesome jazz/rock/fusion compositions.

3.0 out of 5 stars not as good, September 17, 2008

By	EDWARD J PEEKS "dr jazz" (Johnson City, TN) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Despite the wonderful reviews I am afraid I will have to pan this particular album. I have 5 other Greg Howe's and they are all superior. So if you are just discovering him buy earlier efforts.

This isn't a bad piece of work; it just doesn't come close. For example, I am listening to it on Itunes as I type. Itunes went from the last cut of this album to the first cut of Extraction and I could tell immediately that I had stopped listening to Sound Proof and had moved onto something else.

Sorry, Greg

Greg Howe has done it again. This album is sure to satisfy any guitar shred craving you may have. Greg is always striving to push in new and different directions with his music and Sound Proof is all the proof I need. This album is already one of my favorites and I highly recommend you get it NOW!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another fantastic album from Howe, July 23, 2008

By	David S. Patchen "Jazz/Rock Fusion Fan" (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been a fan of Greg Howe for ages and really like this new album. I agree with the other reviewer that it's got a similar feel to Introspection--many tunes are jazzier and not as heavy as some past work. But true to all of Greg's music there's a ton of fantastic grooves with lots of detailed and intricate, melodic playing. Greg's just an amazing musician and one of my favorite guitarists. Very solid playing from all the other musicians on the CD as well. If you ever get a chance to see him play be sure to hold onto your seat.
