Until today, I'd only ever heard this guy's name once or twice in lists of guitarists, never really given any spot of importance. And...I think I've found my new favorite guitarist. Dear God, this guy's the meaning of virtuosic.
@enix165 : Tony's been around many years recording not only his own stuff but classical piano & guitar pieces with many well-known musicians. He can slam down some Bach or Beethoven like you won't believe. I think his classical pianist background enables him to write interesting chord /key progressions, personally, which is why I like his music. The solos aren't rambling. They have beginning, climax, end - most of them anyway.
I used to obsess over Yngwie Malmsteen. Still like him, but Tony kicks his ass SO bad! I'd say the only guitarist I know that can stand up to Tony is Michael Angelo Batio, and that's MAYBE.
Tony is one of the most universal guitarist. He can play progressive music (such as this track), he plays neoclassical music on the guitar, etudes on piano, but he can perform fusion as well (Planet X, CAB). Besides that Mcalpine is genius.
why the hell is there no tab for this??

This tune really shows what a badass Tony MacAlpine is on rhythm guitar as well, not just his lines.

@WeepingBurma Maybe not, looking at the whole icture, but Batio is superb, not to be compared.
