Online Reviews

== Vinnie Moore makes his first appearance on a Richman tribute album, and hopefully it won't be his last. Moore's track "Se A Cabo" opens the album, and he sounds fantastic on this tune. Moore really brings the shred to this release; his crazy-fast legato runs and picking never sound out-of-place, and his aggressive vibrato and high-gain tone work very well here - from The Guitar Channel

== UFO's Vinnie Moore adds some stunning and emotional leads to "Se a Cabo" - from Sea Of Tranquility

== Vinnie Moore's take on the blistering "Se a Cabo" applies a singing tone similar to Santana's. But his far more developed chops and extended techniques take the energy level to places Santana never could - from All About Jazz

== Vinnie Moore. That's right, the UFO-neo-classical-shredding Vinnie Moore. How's that for an unexpected left turn? Turns out to be a pleasant surprise. Richman's arrangement is story-like with the song transitions serving as chapters to Moore's instrumental tale telling. The mood is heroic: Conan the Barbarian running through the jungle, sword in hand, defeating foes to stand atop a rocky crag with arms outstretched in victory, the rescued damsel at his feet a la Frank Frazetta.
