Standards

So for today's post I'm gonna take things in a Jazz direction. Well sort of. Today's offering is 'Goodbye To Romance: Standards For A New Generation' from The Alex Skolnick Trio. Now some of you may recognize the name, Alex of course currently shreds it up in Testament. He's also played with Trans-Siberian Orchestra, as well as Savatage. This showcases Alex's other side, Jazz. Simply a 3 piece that started out covering metal/rock songs and interpreting them into Jazz pieces. Sure you could throw this into a novelty category, but it's really not. Bands covered here include KISS, Aerosmith, The Scorpions, The Who, and the mighty Black Sabbath. Recommended for a change of pace and Jazz fans.
