Im not a big fan of the video, but listening to the song is just great..

Nothing beats Becker.. except, well... Marty ^^ they were god gifted, but becker is my constant inspiration for becoming a good guitarist

It's really good. I'm glad that Becker is composing. Love the title, too.

But for me, personally? Not even close. Yngwie's whole Concerto is on a whole different level. And that's not even touching guys like Juliam Bream, John Wiliiams, Segovia, or Paul Galbraith (from a performance standpoint).

I did not find this Jason Becker thing to be very hmmm... fulfilling. But that's just my

As I said in my first post, I expected this to be a pretty 'contentious' statement, lol. It's good to get a discussion going though...

Becker was more technically skilled than Marty, but I like Marty's style better than Becker's. I just find the stuff Marty writes to be insanely interesting and addicting.

I won't argue with that

I love Marty's stuff to death, and I agree VERY addicting

Dragon's Kiss and Music for Speeding FTW

Totally agree with you DR. Considering Jason Becker situation while composing this song makes me chills
