Unpopular Joe Satriani Song - Silent Night Holy Night


I listened to this song in 2000 for the first time. I found it somewhere online without an artist or a track name. the file name was: Heavy Christmas song!

When I first listened to it I immediately knew that the guitarist was Joe Satriani. I think no one can mistake his signature style. It sound more like a jam to me than a composition, probably the intro was pre-composed.

Anyway, the drum beat is amazing and the bass groove is awesome.
It is another amazing track that shows the real capabilities and genius of Joe Satriani.

I found about the real song using an application called TrackID on my Sony mobile.
You can play any unknown song and make the app listen to it for about 10 seconds then it somehow gets the song identity from a huge audio database somewhere online.

So check it out and if you have an Android mobile and want to get this app you will find it here:

if you are using an iOs device check this alternative app:

Steve Vai - K'm Pee Du Wee - 2005


I think most guitarists will agree that Steve Vai's music is strange and unusual in many of his instrumentals and songs.

I'm a big fan of few songs by him like, for the love of God, Building a church, Tender surrender

Of course I never question his musical genius, incredible guitar techniques and amazing performances .



This one is EXTREMELY weird!

Yet I love it for an unknown reason, and I find it very clear to understand

Maybe it's the beat, maybe it's the scale or mode..

I don't exactly but it's very weird yet very nice.

so check it out, and try to watch the G3 Live in Tokyo concert where he performed it live,
it's an amazing concert
