On April 1, 2008, Joe Satriani will release his 13th solo album, Professor Satchafunkilus and the Musterion of Rock (Sony/BMG). Following the album’s release, Satriani will embark on a worldwide tour, kicking off April 30th in Lisbon, Portugal, before hitting the European market, Australia, South America and finally returning to the U.S. in the fall of 2008.

上面來自Guitar World 在Jan 25, 2008的報導。
近20幾年來,第一位以搖滾吉他風格出演奏專輯而能獲得當時主流市場回應的吉他手 — Steve Vai 和 Kirk Hammett 的老師 — Joe Satriani 。
Satriani 的曲子究竟有多難?乍聽好像不怎樣,尤其現在年輕人才輩出,以前用搖桿很炫,後來點絃很炫,現在 sweeping arpeggio很炫、反手點絃…永無止境。
但是誰記得誰彈過的曲子?誰的旋律會印在大家的腦中?Satriani 的許多曲子絕對做到這樣的經典,像這首 The Crush of Love 就是代表之一。
