In a few words:
Since I have a lot of time to present a guitar virtuoso, let me introduce you to the world of Frank Gambale, a world that is full of melody, high-level technique and lot of feelings. Having at his back Joe Satriani's touring band, "The Great Explorers" is probably more rock-oriented than his albums with Chick Corea or Vital Information. This is the fifth solo album of Gambale and is entirely instrumental. There is a lot of musical variety in the album, since there are energetic rock compositions, as well as jazzy - fusion stuff. In every song you will find a "catchy" (easy to remember) musical phrase, so I believe that the album can be appreciated even by people who are not familiar with fusion. Undoubtedly, fans of Steve Vai or Joe Satriani will definitely find this album at least interesting.
Personal highlights:
"The Final Frontier", "The Great Explorers" and "Dawn Over The Nullarbor"
