Last Day in Paradise

A few years ago I bought the first Alex Skolnick trio album ‘Goodbye to Romance’ not knowing what to expect. I was suitably impressed by the Jazz take on metal songs from Kiss, Sabbath, Aerosmith and Scorpions. They were good imaginative and well composed arrangements and of course featured the very excellent and tasteful guitar noodling of mr Skolnick. The next album, ‘Transformation’ featured a few originals alongside some Judas Priest, Dio and Deep Purple classics.

Curfew - Hold The Front Page

Familiar sounding melodies and themes with a jazzy twist and first class musicianship… and mind blowing solo’s. Thats how I’d sum up Curfew in one rather untidy sentence.
Knowing how stunning Nick Andrew (who writes the fusion and midi columns for us) is as a musician, I was eager to hear him playing in a band context and that is exactly what this Curfew CD delivers.
