Press Reviews
"KILLER INSTRUMENTALS!HE BLEW THE CROWD AWAY!" MIXX MAGAZINE "HIS MUSIC CHANGED MY LIFE" STUART "DINKY" DAWSON JOE FELONI- Guitar instrumentalist supreme is very reminiscent of Joe Satriani, Steve Vai. I really like listening to guitar harmonies and Joe does it very well. "My Country" is an awesome piece that deserves a listen by everyone. It is a very melodic tune. It is obvious that Joe is bound for the big time with tunes like this in his arsenal. There are hints of Jeff Beck, but Joe's stuff seems much cleaner and more defined than Jeff's did. Having been witness to seeing Jeff Beck being booed completely off the stage, I'm hoping that Joe can pull some these tunes off live. There are a lot of tunes on his mp3.com site and I'm sure there is something there for everyone. My favorites were "Tao of me", "My Country", "The Rollercoaster" Blew me away...definitely listen to that one. "La Chaparral" reminds me of one of my favorite guitarists Larry Carlton. Its kind of southwestern jazz, very interesting and haunting tune, I loved it. http://renegadereviews.homepage.com/page77.html |
