Synopsis

Album Description
The self-titled debut disc from SKY HIGH featuring outstanding Swedish blues/rock guitar legend Clas Yngstrom, is an all-time CLASSIC amazing blues/rock guitar masterpiece which includes 13 outstanding trax(51 mins.) of mega-awesome, top-shelf, blues/rock heavy guitar power trio riffage @ its finest. Clas Yngstrom is a true bona-fide blues/rock axemaster of awesome proportions and he is rite up there with the best of them as one of the greatest Hendrix-inspired guitarists in the world. C.Y. digs in deep and shines throughout on the debut SKY HIGH disc, brimming with style, class, vibe & blues power. Clas is an amazing gifted player who has achieved true greatness on the guitar and deserves all the credit he can get. Make no mistake, Clas Yngstrom is the REAL deal when it comes down to some of the finest Hendrixy blues/rock heavy guitar magic you?ll ever hear. SKY HIGH has been re-issued and released for the first time on compact disc by GROOVEYARD RECORDS (a new label dedicated to outstanding TOTAL GUITAR music from around the world). Originally released on vinyl in 1980 and recorded with Swedish vocals, the 2005 re-issue version of SKY HIGH features brand-new English vocals for universal appeal plus 3 awesome BONUS TRAX not found on the original version, including 2 killer Hendrix jams that will fry your brain! Even though the SKY HIGH disc was recorded 25 years ago, it sounds fresh and vibrant today; an amazing undiscovered heavy guitar gem and musical document full of life, soul & blues power that stands tall as one of the all-time great blues/rock heavy guitar discs of our time. The awesome debut SKY HIGH disc is HIGHLY recommended to fans of JIMI HENDRIX (THE MAN!), ROBIN TROWER, FRANK MARINO, STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN, JOHNNY WINTER, RORY GALLAGHER, CREAM, Z.Z.TOP (vintage era), GARY MOORE, WALTER TROUT, WARREN HAYNES, ERIC GALES, PHILIP SAYCE, JOE BONAMASSA, BUDDAHEADS, RANDY HANSEN,THE HAMSTERS and just about any other killer, get-down, top-shelf blues/rock axeslingers on the third stone from the sun that kick serious blues/rock heavy guitar ass. Clas Yngstrom and SKY HIGH have released over a dozen albums plus various solo discs through the years and it?s long overdue and "high" time that the classic first SKY HIGH album has finally been released on compact disc. The bottom line is that if you dig outstanding blues/rock heavy guitar music then you owe it to yourself to tune into the phenomenal debut disc by SKY HIGH. (((EXPERIENCE THE HEAVY GUITAR BLUES POWER OF CLAS YNGSTROM & SKY HIGH)))

"As of today (6/29/09), the tracks posted here by Amazon are actually the tracks from Randy McStine's "Guitarizm" CD, and the Sky High tracks that SHOULD be here are posted on the McStine page."

"Imagine a cross between FREE / GOVERNMENT MULE and HENDRIX and you'd be close. Awesome tracks that capture the essence of the best of POWER TRIO ROCK without sounding retro or jaded. YNGSTROM is an incredible guitarist that covers HENDRIX as well or better than anyone, but here he also shows what a great writer / musiscian he is in his own right. Memorable musik with unforgettable guitar work, whats not to like.

If you are into the guitar, this has to be in your collection.

I have just bought a package of GROOVEYARD releases and urge anyone with a passion for the guitar to do the same. JOE ROMAGNOLA ( of GROOVEYARD ) is one of the few people in the musik business that keeps the guitar alive. If you are passionate about real musik in general and the guitar specificaly, support this label."
