Press Reviews
A very thought-provoking style that brought a vast array of colorful images to mind. Colin Sapp is definitely a very talented instrumentalist, following in the footsteps of the likes of Joe Satriani. Although not quite as refined as some of the big guns, I would not be surprised to see his name on some familiar marquees in the near future.Even though it was recorded on a mostly unused format by today's standards, the quality is quite good and deserves to be listened to.
