Perpetual Burn

There are very few people who have as broad a variation of styles that Jason has shown in his tragically short career. Some names that come to mind are Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. And their careers have spanned several times the number of years that Jason's did. Listen to Perpetual Burn and Jason's other recordings, and like me you will most likely longingly and regretfully wonder what he would be doing nowadays. I for one believe that he would have been in the upper eschelon of guitarists with Mr Vai and Mr Satriani. - Amazon User Review

Having first heard of Jason

Having first heard of Jason Becker in "Guitar For The Practicing Musician", I bought this tape. At the time I wasn't into shred, but I was amazed out how well he played, being he was 17 years old. "Air" had been tabbed in the book, and I couldn't come close to playing! Overall, great playing if your into shred. Worth a listen!
Go Seahawks!
