Brett's solo just jumps off the CD and right through your speakers. 1st time I ever heard Brett was at a clinic in the late 80's when he was playing with the Nelson boys. Man! 10 years later I got to see Shawn play! WOW! I ended up at the gig about 3 hours before it was to start and got to hear Shawn play onstage in an empty venue. Only 3 people in the place, Shawn, my friend and myself just listening to Shawn play for 45 minutes. Needless to say a humbling exp. I knew at the time I would...

I picked this album at random during a high school trip to new York city. I was 17, it was my first introduction to this fusion( ?) jazz ambiance. I never felt it was from my time. As a teenager, I had an odd posture by listening to this. Now it sounds very far away, forgotten, hidden in the depth of KZread.

Gambale delivering one of the most melodic solos ever.

Shawn's lick from 5:18 - 5:24 is one of those things I could put on repeat forever.

These solos are so memorable it's nuts!!!

i love gambale`s line during the chord change at 7:58. its a simple lick that sounds perfect in context

One of the best fusion rhythm sections ever established.

I've come to expect a lot of craziness in Shawn Lane's playing, but 6:35-6:39 baffles me. That absurd hybrid picking lick sounds like something that Guthrie Govan said "...some of it sounds like a printer going mental..."

Brett’s solo starting is mind blowing! 👌🎶🎸

Shawn Lane still amazes me... wow...

Studied this vamp at Berklee and also at the National Guitar Workshop when they had their sessions. Thanks to Terry Syrek, James Hogan, Chris P, Dave Martone, Chris Those were life changing, and incredibly motivating opportunities. Aside from everything else, this is an incredible example of how much creativity and innovation that a particular guitarist can put into his/her style and how much it can shine though above all the "noise" in the world of creative music!

Amazing solo ,SHWAN Lane🎸❤️😊

BRETT GARSED.. Tasteful guitar solo,Tone, Fell..

Gambale's is probably the only one l would go back to, for its memorability but, my word, the technical display here is insane.

Joey Heredia - what a groove!

Brett's solo is insane! What a beast

Would be fantastic, if we could see the clips of 'recording sessions' of this amazing album. Sure thing, Mike Varney has it in his archieve. Share with us Mr. Varney!

I remember going to a freakin Nelson concert in like '91 because my drummer at the time convinced me that there would be a lot of girls there, and there surely were, but there was also Brett Garsed playing with them and his live solo tore my fool head off, and I became a fan and later was lucky enough to take a couple of lessons from him a couple of years later when I got out to LA. Great guy, amazing chops. Shawn.... where does one begin? Frank? Phenomenal. So happy to find this gem on KZread!

Great. I listened for brett, shawn and gambale in the solos!!!!

Oh such grace what a piece!

I listened this back in 2007 and still blowing my mind. 😮

Great solos, for me the most well done one was Gambale. The way the solo grows up and the scales choice is great. Shawns and Brett solo are great too, truly three great guitar players each one with its characteristics.

Old yet Great stuff. Amazing.

Brett Garsed (g - 1st solo), Shawn Lane (g - 2nd solo), Frank Gambale (g - 3rd solo), Mike O'Neill (rhythm g), Freddy Ravel (keyb), Jimmy Earl (b solo) and Joey Heredia (d) in 1991.

I'm a guitarist. I found brett, Lane, and Gambale's solos awesome. But... have you noticed the groovy bass solo prior to theirs ?

Eargasm!!!!!!

I remember getting this simply because it was a Shrapnel related album, thinking wow this is boring then later on it became the album I had to play for students whenever they said they wanted to learn from me. Basically to say "well I don't really play that good these guys will blow your mind."

Imagine a G3 with these three.

This track is funky as hell. Fucking amazing. Everyone tore this shit uppppp!

this its the cream of the cream in the fusion world

¡¡¡Mas que genial!!!

incredible phrasing

The best moment (if that exist) is between 4:22 - 4:34. Thats an history being told

O primeiro solo Brett disparou como um carro de F1 aí Shawn lane escutou e disse... vou complicar mais ainda. Frank Gambale escutou os 2 solos e falou..calma amigos pra que correr e fez um solo mais sentimental 😂😂 mas eu prefiro o solo de Brett Garsed

Check out "Hazard Profile", or "Bundles" by Soft Machine with Alan Holdsworth.

01:43...BASS RULES!!!! 😨😨😨😨😨😨

6:55 Cliffs of dover lick. Brent Garsed sounds very clean on this but I think Gambale's ability to take a phrase through the key change is better. Lane and Garsed don't play as many motifs, just more burning which to me is less interesting. You can definitely tell who was the most seasoned guitarist on this.

Keep forgetting this song and the band after I discovered it.

Anybody else notice the old string noise when he stops playing? I know the strings aren't old but something with the two overdrive's and compression gives that hiss noise that sounds worse than Nails on a chalkboard! At least John Frusciantes od hiss was sexy Brett!
