A LOVE LETTER TO SATCH
STEVE VAI
What do you think makes Joe Satriani unique?
Joe is connected to the inspired melodies in his heart and has the musical ear and a command of the technique to manifest them in an effective and powerful way.
What is your favourite JS track and why?
Cryin’. Besides the flawless intonation, complete mastery of phrasing and finger tone, the melody is the voice of God flowing through a human.

What do you think makes Joe Satriani unique?
Joe writes great melodies and songs, not just technical showcases.
What is your favourite JS track and why?
Midnight. It’s just a very musical and unique tapping piece.
STEVE MORSE
What do you think makes Joe Satriani unique?
Joe combines a great melodic sense with an exciting instinct for sonic flourishes, such as right hand hammering, effortless harmonics, vibrato bar gymnastics and more.
What is your favourite JS track and why?
My favourite track is still Satch Boogie because it has that tempo and feel which I already love, but he does such a fantastic job of making it interesting and ever changing. Putting the middle breakdown part in, even though the radio play executives wouldn’t want it, is icing on the cake.
