Question on the Odyssey

[mark_bwaite]

I just got the Odyssey on Friday. Incredible album so far!! I have not listened to the Odyssey track yet or Masquerade. But I was wondering which solo is it that sounds like it is influenced by Jason Becker?! (I remember people talking about it)

 

[SiRo]

actually the melodic solo of "Journey to Ithaca" reminds me to Steve Vai

 

[Ultimate_Symphony]

Well I can't recall hearing any solo influenced by Jason Becker, I think I gotta check out again

I was talking about how Mike's style is reminiscent of Jason's in that he is willing to push the musical envelope a little further, I mean he just sometimes goes off and wails like Jason did in Cacophony. Jason is pretty much musically perfect in his solo albums, except for some crazy whammy bar things and some insane arpeggiation on Perpetual Burn. Mike's solo on King of Terrors is just sick, and it sounds awesome!
That is kind of what I mean. But I can't really recall any solos that sound just like Jason, there are similarities just here and there, but really, it sounds like the MJR we all know and love!
