: I, like many I'm sure, remember Steve from the intro to 'Sweet Jane' with Lou Reed. I had always loved that intro, and for some reason, did some checking up on Steve. I came across this cd, and thought what the heck. Boy was I blown away. This was done some time ago, but it is really a masterpiece of great guitar work. I like that it's only instrumental, for many times singers just get in the way of a craftsman like Steve. He is very diverse with his playing and it's too bad he doesn't get more accolades. Great work! (J. Richardson, 5/5 stars, amazon.com) : Terrific album but incognito. It is an instrumental guitar album. This guy was playing with Alice Cooper and Lou Reed. Sometimes he gets western like in "Ghost riders", jazzy like "Pig jam", Pink Floydish like "The surge" or "The old man in the boat" ...My favorite track is "Hidden Portrait". (Guylaine Le Ber, 5/5 stars, amazon.com)
