Joe Satriani Guitar Lessons

The Master himself demonstrates how to play one of his most famous tracks, Surfing with the Alien! As well as being a stunningly talented guitarist, Joe has an excellent teaching style which these videos clearly demonstrate. He runs through all the main guitar parts of this track in some detail and gives a great insight into how he develops phrasing and mixing of modes in the main guitar solo.

If you haven't already got the "Surfing With The Alien" album, a 20th anniversary special two-disc DVD and CD box set featuring a remastered version of the album plus a never before seen performance from 1988 at Montreux Jazz Festival! has been released. You can visit Joe Satriani's website for more details.

In the meantime sit back, grab a cup of joe (no pun intended) and enjoy.
