Joe Satriani: The Complete Studio Recordings is a box set worthy of one of the greatest instrumental rock guitarists of our time. Joe Satriani is the guitar. Plain and simple. No one else has ever been able to play with such pizzazz, such fluidity, such timelessness.Since the late eighties, the self-taught, multi-platinum virtuoso has been winning over fans and musicians alike with his groundbreaking style and legendary sounds. He has been around the world several times on tours of his own, as well as tours with Mick Jagger, Deep Purple, and hugely successful G3 summer tours and albums with fellow guitar legends Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, and Kenny Wayne Shepherd and as part of the supergroup, Chickenfoot. He has been both artist and teacher, instructing such famous pupils as Steve Vai, Metallica s Kirk Hammett, Counting Crows David Bryson, and jazz fusionist Charlie Hunter.

TRIPLE DISC SET OF LIVE AND BROADCAST RECORDINGS FROM THE GUITAR MAESTRO Featuring previously unreleased live recordings from Joe Satriani, recorded for FM Broadcast throughout his solo-career to date, this collector s box set will prove a delight for fans of the man everywhere. Kicking off on Disc One with a marvellous performance Joe gave in San Jose in 1988, shortly after the release of his dynamic Surfing With The Alien album. Disc Two features rarities from across Satriani s career, and includes his full MTV Unplugged appearance, his set at the 1991 Bill Graham Benefit Concert and an extraordinary Jam session he took part in at his own home studio, alongside his former pupil Steve Vai. Concluding the set, Disc Three includes the live show he played at the Fantasy Studios in Berkeley, CA, in 2000, as part of that year s G3 tour, which again found him playing alongside Vai on a number of cuts.

Celebrating 30 years of Nils Landgren Funk Unit. The year 1994 marks the birth of the Funk Unit. When I got the offer from Siggi Loch to join his new label ACT, the first thing he did was to change the original band name Unit to Funk Unit. When I asked why, he answered: ”because you play funk” – and right he was. The rest is history. After 30 years of albums, touring and everything connected to it, I thought it would be great to go somewhere special for our 30th anniversary recording session. I happen to have a dear friend, Johan Lundgren, who used to be my trombone student lightyears ago, and he, together with another friend, Fredrik Thomander, built a fantastic Recording Studio in Palma on the island of Mallorca. Wouldn’t it be a great opportunity for us all, after all these years together, to record the album in a relaxed setting, being able to fully concentrate on our task? To make an album celebrating our 30-year history as a funk band from Sweden.
