It's all very well somebody saying 'ignore ALL the poor reviews' but as the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire and I seriously could not recommend this CD to anybody who plays guitar. Speed guitarists have been around for years, Vinnie Vincent played in a similar way in the Eighties. All this guy is doing is playing scales as fast as possible, and if people are impressed with this kind of playing thats fine. But for me personally, it does nothing. I agree with the other reviews on the songs as well, they are poor.
