@Defenseman619 - Hmm I only liked Accelerated Evolution & Infinity. Devlab, on the other hand is something that I found really boring, since I work with sequencers and have listened to a lot of ambient stuff before that. It's all a matter of preference, we are right only in our own mind.
Actually Devin was 20 or 21 years old (not 19) when recorded this. He's born in 1972. But that changes nothing. He was insanely young to play with those musicians-monsters, but IMHO(!!!) Devin was most impressive mamber of the band, better than Vai, T.M. or Bozzio.
Respect Vai/Satch/Yngwie etc for their talents, but the music is... crap. I mean it's forgettable. Doodling. A song built around a solo. Devin's music on the other hand is EPIC, quite possibly some of the best I've ever heard, if not THE best. Devy matches talent with music... Vai is great, but the songs... lame.
@Defenseman619 i guess we hear it differently because few times is it only the solo that matters to those artists (well maybe yngwie) but satch and vai put the song itself ahead of the solo they may throw in embellishments to make it unique but the point of the song to them is to be expressive and good not to go around the solo.
@Defenseman619 I couldn't agree with you more!! Technically those guys you mentioned are amazing but Devin just puts far more feeling into his music...but that is just my opinion :)
Punky, punky give me your lips to die on,
I promise not to........
