30 years ago Mike Varney from Shrapnel Records saw the potential in a skinny, young guitarist and produced his first album.
That guy's name was Paul Gilbert, and this was the first song on his first record (right after the intro "Frenzy").
If I had to choose one word to describe his playing on the first Racer X records, it would be FEROCIOUS. Sheer accuracy and intensity, his alternate picking still remains unmatched today in my book.
that's awesome man!!! thanks a lot!This sounds amazing!!! Mike Varney has been a good friend of mine for years. I am going to send this to him as I think he would really enjoy it. All your videos have been great. Keep up the good work.
