Jason Becker

[* velcro-fly *]

Holy shit this tune was smoking... crazy a teenager wrote it. Marty Friedman's 1st riff in that first solo he takes is just ridiculous.



This is cool too, Atma Anur is such a killer drummer too

I listened to that song a million times when it came out!!!! Damn fine composition. Love the shift to blues scales at the end.

Crazy album.

I still have my original vinyl of that album that I got when I was in high school. My buddy bought the Friedman one and I bought that one in a record store in Germany we used to go to.

I watched the documentary last year and was so moved that I donated to him and his family thru the website. It is so inspiring to see someone like him that can't even move but he is still finding anyway to create. I think the documentary is free on Tubi. I would still love to get that signature guitar of his.

I met him back in the day, went to his house, took some lessons. Jason is a legend, terrifying player!!

Opus Pocus is one of my all-time favorite instrumental guitar tracks,,,,,,by anyone.

I been teaching a lot of his stuff . I must pony this out : don’t forget the licks Jadon did in cacaphony . There some ideas I never saw him do again . I find myself really having fun playing say Savage . The long flowing lines in the main melody are amazing titty twisters on guitar .

Btw . For $50 you can can get a print of at that Jason’s dad painted . Jason then puts his real magical thumbprint on it . All proceeds go to his medical help . Well worth it for him .
I had to touch my thumb into his for good luck . I found after I touched his print I can play anything . Lol jk

Thanks for letting me know! I just ordered a print!

I could use Jason and his Dad's energy in my house. I have so much respect for that family. They never gave up and complained, they just figurex out how to press on.

Hey once you own it you can put your print in, lol.

Yeah I get these God moments and just do stuff. I have had such a great life and don't have a lot of real stuff to complain about. I feel like I could do way more for people. But like a lot of us, we get caught up in our lives and forget.

Have you seen the documentary? It is really good and wven though he has good and bad days, he had a great sense of humor and a lot of self-deprication.
