  1. I love Joe's work and wish there was more of it. Heck with the singer. He doesn't need one. Love some of Vai's, Steven's, and Hoey's as well. They don't need a singer. I like to hear them with or without a singer. If people can endure and love a guitar solo without singing, they can enjoy a song without it. Steve Stevens has exceptinally long solos which I love and could have handled an entire songs worth. I could have handled Dann Huff making an entire guitar track out of "I'm A Believer" or the intro to "Self-Control" he (along with Paul Jackson, Jr.) did for Laura Brannigan. The singing was good, but I'd rather have heard that guitar riff all the way through.

     

    As far as Joe's work, if you had vocals added to Surfing With the Alien, Back to Shalla-Bal, Motorcycle Driver, and some others - they would have been destroyed. I don't care if Steve Perry or Tony Harnell sung them.

     

    If you ever visit my house, you better be able to endure guitar music. It's Merry Axemas or Ho Ho Hoey going now, and Joe Satriani all the time. I wanted "Surfing With the Alien" for a ringtone, but my carrier no longer has it. I watch the video on You Tube all the time as well - awesome! I watch G3, Yngwie, Le Tekro, Angelo, Setzer - you name it, doing instrumental only songs. The axe rules in my book. :guitbannana:

     

    I'm not claiming I don't love great vocals, but guitar only tracks are designed different than vocal tracks. One is self- sufficient, while the other relies on a combination of sounds. There are lots of boring guitar tracks, but there are a ton of boring songs with vocals too. You just have to hit the next arrow on your cd player.

  2. Should we wait to submit covers until we know what we have submitted as been accepted ?

     

     

    Yeah, that's what I'd recommend. Unless of course it's a new entry for an artist that already exists on the site; ..those pics. will always be accepted.

    a....*insert name here*......and is now selling under the name of sleaze4ever on eBay.......

     

    Just thought I'd warn you guys......

     

    This guy bought a demo tape or two from me. Met him through Sean Kaufman. Said he only would buy tapes. Didn't want cds at all. First email said Rob, but he told me his name was Chris in the next email. Said he was using a friend's computer. I recognized the email as someone I'd dealt with years ago. ...Tim

  4. Icon – An Even More Perfect Union CD

     

    1995/Epilogue. 17 tracks (includes 3 bonus), this is the 1st pressing, # 2132 and is autographed by Dan Wexler. Vocals are performed by Jerry Harrison (Harlequin). Here is finally your chance to complete your Icon collection.

     

     

     

    It's been awhile since I've sold on Ebay, but I believe you can make the bidders anonymous. I may be wrong? ...Tim

  5. We've had one twice I believe, and they were removed because of lack of use. I guess since eveyone goes to bed and works at so many different hours, it is difficult. I went there quite a bit, but it was empty a lot. Of course, sometimes we had 10 people or more. I liked it, personally. ...Tim

     

    BTW, cool name Axe Man!
