Joe Stump's new instrumental release, "Armed & Ready," solidifies Joe's
firm hold as the most over the top rock guitarist known to man! Joe was
recently voted one of the top ten shredders of all time in Guitar One
Magazine.
Citing influences such as Uli Jon Roth, Jimi Hendrix, Ritchie Blackmore,
Michael Schenker, Gary Moore and Yngwie Malmsteen for this tour de force of
guitar histrionics, Joe blazes through each of the 8 tracks with a no holds
barred attitude. To even fathom that some of these tracks are first takes
can only boggle the mind of the talent necessary to be so inventive,
forceful, dynamic and emotional in this type of format.
This CD was originally recorded as part of the acclaimed Diginet Music
Guitar Masters series. But, all parties agreed that this CD needed to reach
a much larger audience and that could only be accomplished by a full
fledged commercial release. The guitar series provided each guitarist with
the same drum and bass tracks, played by Mike Haid and David T. Chastain
respectivly, and then each player added his own unique parts over the
rhythm tracks.
