Unbelievable - that's all I can say. Logging in a massive 36 minutes (YES less than 1/2 of a full CD - maybe it should sell for only [half the price]), once you take away the 1 minute drum loop intros with dull, repetitive bass lines, this CD probably has bout 20 minutes of real guitar playing on it. I recently bought the boxed set of "Blow by Blow", "Wired" and "There and Back" and can't believe it is even the same guitarist.It's time to quit using words like "Genius" & "Guitar God" for people who put out this type of an offering. Any of Eric Johnson's albums blow this one right out of the galaxy. If you're looking for a stunning guitar playing, spend your money on the new Frank Gambale, Joe Satriani or Eric Johnson CD. If you want to see what happens when a legend tries to stoop to the lowest common denominator of current pop trends, and sacrifice his guitar playing to do so, buy this CD and enjoy your 36 minutes of music.
