| Surfing With The Alien - Joe Satriani [1987]
Wikipedia -
Surfing with the Alien is the second album by instrumental rock solo artist Joe Satriani, released in 1987. Surfing with the Alien contributed greatly to establishing Satriani's reputation as a respected rock guitarist.[1]
The album contains fast and complex songs such as "Surfing with the Alien" and "Satch Boogie" in addition to the stranger-sounding "Crushing Day" and "Lords of Karma", in contrast to slower, melodic songs like "Always with Me, Always with You" and "Echo" which provide a change of pace. Also notable is "Midnight", which utilizes the technique of two-hand tapping at great speed, resulting in a Latin-American effect. There are also Nashville tuned guitars (on "Echo") and key changes (on "Always with Me, Always with You" and "Echo") to vary the album.
The album cover depicts the Marvel Comics character the Silver Surfer on the front and the hand of Galactus on the back. The image is from Silver Surfer #1 (1982). The artist, John Byrne, has noted that the image was used without Marvel's permission and that he has never received payment for its use. The art is lifted from panel 1 of page 6 of SILVER SURFER #1 published in 1982. [2] The track "Ice 9" references the fictional apocalyptic substance from Kurt Vonnegut's novel Cat's Cradle.

Joe Satriani surfed into the big time with this 1987 virtuoso rock breakthrough, the first instrumental record to crack the Billboard Top 200 in years. State-of-the-art guitar playing--complete with wang- bar dive-bombs, two-handed tapping à la Van Halen, and juicy blues bends--wrapped in heavily layered arrangements, Surfing is textbook "shred" guitar, the oft-imitated style perfected by Satriani's student Steve Vai but born from Eddie Van Halen's dynamic inventions. The swing-metal "Satch Boogie," the ballad "Always with Me, Always with You," and the driving "Ice 9" are the album's standout tracks, though "Echo" is probably the most interesting cut, graced with a wistful melody from Satriani, who for once slows down on this whiz-bang technical showcase.
