Lindsey Boullt- Composition
(Lindsey Boullt)
From Aural Innovations #38 (Jan 2008)
Now talk about a superstar line up of backing musicians for guitar heroes.
Let’s just say that the musicianship on this CD is pretty amazing and
they play some great and intense music as well. It is for sure not just all
guitar shredding although, you have a some like on the opening track Page Revisited…
Jerry Goodman on Violin, Stu Hamm or Jon Herrera on Bass, Atma Anur or Jeremy
Colson on drums, Peter Van Gelder on sitar, Derek Sherinian on keyboards, Mingo
Lewis on Percussion and Sukhawat Ali Khan on vocals on one or two tracks.. This
is a great mixture of jazz or metal or rock fusion. Taste the Hate is a totally
amazing track with killer guitar, sitar and a cool Middle Eastern vibe. Farewell
is a more laid back affair with some great melodic guitar soloing and nice acoustic
playing but I did not really care for the keyboards, too new age sounding. Cleopatra’s
Third Eye ends the CD and features some nice bass, percussion and a sitar piece
at the end that leads into the intense guitar and back into the main theme of
the composition. Great stuff.
