Well, almost everybody's familiar with this classic, which made Joe famous. There's no doubt about Joe's virtuosity when you'll hear the first track 'Surfing With the Alien'. This album is considered as a landmark of Instrumental Guitar Music. Joe crossed the boundaries and set the new standards in guitar playing with this album.

Although this album is short (approximately 37 minutes), it doesn't lower the grade... When this album was first released, it was issued on vinyl. So therefore I won't lower the grade. This album is very good and there is no sign of weary towards this album.

If you haven't got this album, I think now would be the time to get it... It's a very diverse album with beautiful songs like 'Always With Me, Always With You' and 'Echo' to name a few.
