ElectriGuitartistry is the debut album from Danish guitarist Steffen Schackinger. The album is an incredible showcase of talent that ranges from the nearly 10 minute opening track “Major Inventions” that starts off reminiscent of the instrumental work of early Pink Floyd before the faster legato playing a-la Ah Via Musicom era Eric Johnson comes in, to a country tinged track like “The Dixieland” which features a very prominent fiddle accompaniment. Also notable is the inclusion of the core bass line of "Come Together" from The Beatles (or Aerosmith, if you insist) backing the third track, "Perfect Waves." It’s hard to pigeonhole an album like this, but if you appreciate a solid rock instrumental then you should definitely give this a listen.
