Probably Gary's Best Work!
givemerock | Plainfield, IL United States | 01/14/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Outside of Joe Satriani and Steve Morse you won't find a

more talented instramental guitarist than Gary Hoey!

Gary may not get as much "acclaim" as Joe, but he should.

Gary's been putting out great instramental work since the

late 80's! One area that Gary may have an edge over

others instramental artists is his song writing. It's not

blistering guitar work just for the sake of it. This is

good music begining to end. And when Gary takes the vocal

reigns on a few tracks you don't kringe. It just sounds

right. On top of that I think Gary's one of the best at

doing a cover tune. He does'nt copy it, he puts his stamp

on it. If your new to Gary's work check out his

"Greatest Hits" as well."
A great place to start

"If you never have purchased a Gary Hoey CD before, this is a great one to pick up for fans and guitar players. Gary plays with a great feel with the grace of a player who knows where he is going. Among the excelent compositions there are some wonderfull covers. This CD is perfect to crank up when your driving."
This will blow you away !!!!!

"OK now I listen to almost every guitar great you can imagine. And will BUY not download all of their CDs. Hendrix, Petrucci, Zappa, Blackmore, Trower, Vai, Satriani, well you get the point. Now I heard about Hoey in a cover sort of way. Heard him play other people's songs but not his. Well found this jewel of a cd in Montreal, bought it and now it has melted in my CD player !!!!



This is one smoking hot cd, lotsa chops, great solos evrything a guitar freak can ask for. As for the vocals, I figure if Hendrix sang, Gary can too..... :O)



He reminds me of Vai (for the whah-whah pedal work) but apart from that. His playing is top-notch. And this CD is a MUST....



YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID....



Later....."
