What the Riff?!?
1987 - October: Joe Satriani "Surfing with the Alien"

What the Riff?!?

New York native Joe Satriani had previously recorded an album in 1986, and ran up some credit card credit card debt in the process.  He paid off the debt from his earnings as a member of the Greg Kihn Band, but stayed on a low budget of $13,000 when he recorded his second and all-instrumental studio album, Surfing with the Alien.  This would be a break-out album for the guitar virtuoso.Satriani began playing guitar at age 14 under the inspiration of Jimi Hendrix.  Supposedly he heard of Hendrix's death at football practice, and announced he was quitting the sport to become a guitarist.  Satriani taught guitar to a number of students including Kirk Hammett of Metallica, David Bryson of the Counting Crows, and perhaps most notably fellow Carle Place High School alumni Steve Vai.This album relied on drum machines rather heavily, with percussionist Jeff Campitelli recording overdubs to flesh out the pieces.  Satriani played on two Kramer Pacer guitars and a Stratocaster guitar for the album, and would change the pickups to get different sounds.  The cover artwork was originally a picture of Marvel Comics' Silver Surfer until the price for renewal grew too hefty in 2018, at which time it was replaced with a silver guitar.Satriani has been a "hired gun" with a number of groups including Alice Cooper, Blue Oyster Cult, Deep Purple, the Yardbirds, and even Spinal Tap for their 1992 album.  He is also known for his work with the supergroup Chickenfoot, and for founding the G3 tour. Surfing with the AlienThis is the first and title track to the album.  The title popped into Satriani's head when he was thinking about what it would sound like if aliens came to Earth but were just looking for fun rather than global conquest.Always with Me, Always with YouThis is the most popular track off the album.  Joe Satriani wrote it as a love song for his wife, Rubina, and it is an instrumental power ballad.CirclesIf you haven't heard the album as a whole, you likely have not heard this deeper cut.  It has a slow start and finish, with a hard thrashing center.  It will give you a good sense for Satriani's playing style when using a slower tempo.  Satch BoogieSatriani composed this hard rocking song after a car accident in 1986 when he was in a neck brace and on pain medication.  Supposedly the concept was about what it would sound like if there was a horn section trying to play with Gene Krupa (the jazz drummer on "Sing, Sing, Sing") while his drum set was falling down a flight of stairs.  This is the only track which uses live percussion. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Sweet Little Sixteen  by Chuck Berry (from the motion picture Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll)This documentary film featured two of Chuck Berry's 1986 concerts in celebration of his 60th birthday. STAFF PICKS:It's A Sin by Pet Shop BoysRob's synth-heavy staff pick is from the English duo of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, known as the Pet Shop Boys.  The song off their second album covers the struggle of a gay person in a Catholic environment.  It was intended as a campy song, but perhaps had more meaning than the duo intended.Paper In Fire by John MellencampBrian brings us back to small town USA with a hit off Mellencamp's album Lonesome Jubilee.  The first single released peaked at number 9 in October 1987.  Paper in fire is a reference to Hell from the Bible, taken from the book of Ecclesiastes 7:5-6.  Big Generator by YesAll roads lead to Wayne's staff pick, and the title track from the Yes album.  The Big Generator album followed their immensely successful album 90125, and the lyrics from this song reflects the band's take on the pressure the record labels received to continue producing pop hits.  "Praise, oh praise this anthem generator."I Don't Mind at All by Bourgeois TaggBruce's staff pick is a one-hit wonder from the duet Brent Bourgeois (keyboards, vocals) and Larry Tagg (bass, vocals).  This song is off their second album Yoyo, which was produced by Todd Rundgren.  This is their biggest hit, which peaked at number 38 on the Billboard Hot 100. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Blues For Salvador by Carlos SantanaThis instrumental is from another long-running guitar virtuoso who would remain an active force in the rock world for decades.  This is the title track from Carlos Santana's album.

Joe Satriani was born on July 15, 1956 at Westbury (in the state of New York). He played a little on his sister's guitar. She had played some folk music in high school. He was inspired since he was young by Blues music, the Beatles and the Stones so when he turned 8 he started playing drums, then some piano a bit later. On September 18, 1970 all collapsed around him when he learned that Jimi Hendrix passed away. Joe was only 14 but he decided from this moment to stop everything and dedicate his life to learn the instrument of his idol.The following years were long periods of practising and learning a lot with the purpose of becoming a great guitar player. He learned musical theory from Bill Wescott and started to take an interest in jazz music. Later he took lessons with Billy Bauer and the pedagogue Lennie Tristano who played such a major role in his learning. Then it was his turn to give guitar lessons to a lot of guitar players that became famous such as David Bryson from Counting Crows, Kirk Hammett from Metallica, Larry Lalonde from Primus, Charlie Hunter, Jeff Tyson and, of course, the genius Steve Vai.In 1979 Joe formed The Squares in San Francisco with his friend Jeff Campitelli and Andy Milton. The second album of the Squares was the beginning of his relationship with the mastering engineer John Cuniberti. The band had success in San Francisco but remained unknown elsewhere, so in 1984 he recorded an EP of 5 tracks on his own Rubina label, (his wife's name).Steve Vai, who was in the Frank Zappa's band, introduced Joe to Relativity Records. At the time Joe was recording Not Of This Earth, and Relativity Records gave him a chance to make a record that didn't sound like the drum machines he'd used.Then Surfing With The Alien came out in 1987 and that was the explosion in terms of Joe's career. It become a platinum disc. This album contributed to introducing Satriani to the general public and he succeeded in imposing his new style even if many others like Jeff Beck had paved the way somewhat.A major event in Joe Satriani's career and rock history was when 90,000 people gathered together in North America in October 1996 and discovered the G3 format (with Joe Satriani, Steve Vai and Eric Johnson the first year), who didn't stop touring for 6 months. The G3 was a worldwide tour created by Joe Satriani and put on stage the 3 best guitar players from the time. There were a lot of G3 experiences later with a lot of guitar players like Billy Gibbons, Neal Schon, Steve Morse, Andy Timmons, Uli Jon Roth, Patrick Rondat, Robert Fripp, Yngwie Malmsteen, John Petrucci, or Paul Gilbert to mention just a few.His latest album, "Shapeshifting" came out in April of 2020. Learn more about Lyte.

What the Riff?!?
1993 - September: Counting Crows "August and Everything After"

What the Riff?!?

Berkeley, California's Counting Crows seemed to become overnight sensations with their debut album August and Everything After. Lead man and pianist Adam Duritz and guitarist David Bryson came out of a group called The Himalayans, originally starting as a duet. Over time they formed the group, adding keyboardist Charlie Gillingham, guitarists Dan Vickrey and David Immergluck, bassist Millard Powers, and percussionist Jim Bogios. In a time when grunge was on the ascendancy, the Counting Crows drew inspiration more from Van Morrison and the coffee house than from Kurt Cobain and Seattle. Duritz' lyrics are a powerful draw for the band. Ironically, despite the fame-chasing lyrics of their breakthrough single, "Mr. Jones," Adam Duritz was never very comfortable with the fame that came with the success of the Counting Crows.We hope you enjoy this lyric-rich album. Round HereThe first track on the album describes a man walking away from a home and a woman, only to discover that he is walking away from himself. The lyrics talk about all the things he can now do, but while these freedoms are important to children, they are not very significant to adults.OmahaThis is a deeper cut off the album, and was tried by Duritz in many previous bands before finally feeling like he got it right with this iteration. In April 1994, the city of Omaha, Nebraska designated this song the “official song of the city.”Anna BeginsAnother deep cut, this song was inspired by a relationship Duritz had with an Australian named Anna. The relationship could not survive the geographic distance. “She's talking in her sleep, it's keeping me awake, and Anna begins to toss and turn. And every word is nonsense but I understand, and Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing.”Rain KingA big hit off the album, "“I've been here before, and I deserve a little more.” The song was written in 40 minutes after watching the film “Dr. Zhivago.” ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:“The X-Files” by Mark SnowThe long-running science fiction television series featuring Mulder and Skully began in 1993. The truth is out there!STAFF PICKS:“Creep” by RadioheadBrian features the ultra-depressing lyrics of Thom Yorke. The song was inspired by an obsession York had with a stranger. When he confessed his obsession, the result was decidedly not a good one.“I Would Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)” by Meat LoafBruce features the longest single in history to make it to #1 on the charts, clocking in at 7:58. Meat Loaf won a Grammy for this song from the sequel album to 1977's “Bat out of Hell.”“My Sister” by The Juliana Hatfield ThreeWayne brings an alternative track that was big on the radio, but didn't make it to the charts. It is told from the perspective of a little sister or brother looking up to a big sister, with the love-hate relationship that comes with it.“Crazy Mary” by Pearl JamRob's staff pick was originally a folk song written by guitar player Victoria Williams. Pearl Jam put this cover on a benefit album for Williams after she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Williams sings in the background. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:“Food Innuendo Guy” by Adam SandlerThis song really mashes our potatoes.

Musician Frank Lettieri (dustofdays.bandcamp.com) joins Bill and Brian as we finally set to tackling Counting Crows' August and Everything After (1993, Geffen). Frank talks about having this album gifted to him as a part of a long tradition of uncles introducing nephews to cool music. Then Bill, Brian, and Frank discuss what one of the engineers on the album shared about the equipment used to record the album, the importance of the band's SNL performance in January of 1994, Adam Duritz's exquisite cafe poetry, how producer T-Bone Burnett influenced the overall sound of the recording, the underrated rhythm section of Steve Bowman and Matt Malley, Charlie Gillingham as a Benmont Tench-esque secret weapon, David Bryson's memorable guitar hooks, and more as we make our way through the album track by track!
