Resumen del Editor
Oft-hailed as the Jimi Hendrix of his generation, living guitar legend Joe Satriani has long transcended stylistic boundaries with a sound that raises the bar like a new horizon for the broader genre of instrumental guitar rock. Joe's six-string secrets have astounded listeners around the world for nearly 30 years.
In Strange Beautiful Music: A Musical Memoir, Satriani and coauthor, music biographer Jake Brown, take fans on their first authorized tour of the story behind his climb to stardom and the creative odyssey involved in writing and recording a storied catalog of classics, including "Surfing with the Alien", "Summer Song", "Satch Boogie", "Always With Me, Always With You", "The Extremist", "Flying in a Blue Dream", "Crowd Chant", and more.
Featuring exclusive, firsthand interviews with Satriani, Strange Beautiful Music offers a unique look inside the studio with Joe, giving fans a chance to get up close and personal like never before. With insider details about his collaboration with multi-platinum supergroup Chickenfoot, exclusive interviews with Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony of Van Halen and Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, commentary from fellow guitar legends such as Steve Vai, Metallica's Kirk Hammett, Primus' Larry LaLonde, and legendary music producers, including Glynn Johns and the late Andy Johns, this memoir offers a rare inside look for die-hard Satriani fans, guitar enthusiasts, and anyone who loves to rock.
Strange Beautiful Music features music performed by the author. Included throughout the audiobook are samples of some of Satriani's most memorable songs.

Yngwie Malmsteen's revolutionary guitar style - combining elements of classical music with the speed and volume of heavy metal - made him a staple of the 80s rock scene. Decades later, he's still a legend among guitarists, having sold 11 million albums and influenced generations of rockers since. In Relentless, Malmsteen shares his personal story, from the moment he burst onto the scene seemingly out of nowhere in the early 80s to become a household name in the annals of heavy metal.

The smooth veneer of the duo's songs made Steely Dan popular and famous in the 1970s, but the polish glossed over the underlying layers of anger, disappointment, sleaze, and often downright weirdness lurking just beneath the surface. The elliptical lyrics—were—and continue to be-an endless source of fascination. What kind of person was capable of writing such songs? Donald Fagen has always kept his true self hidden behind walls of irony, confounding most journalistic enquiries. Nightfly cracks open the door to reveal the life behind the lyrics.

The quartet's classic 1978 debut, Van Halen, sold more than a million copies within months of release and rocketed the band to the stratosphere of rock success.

Historia
Pioneers of Britain's nascent rock and metal scene back in the late 1970s, Iron Maiden smashed its way to the top, thanks in no small part to the high-octane performances, operatic singing style, and stage presence of its second but twice-longest-serving lead singer, Bruce Dickinson. As Iron Maiden's front man - first from 1981 to 1993 and then from 1999 to the present - Dickinson has been, and remains, a man of legend.

Historia
The smooth veneer of the duo's songs made Steely Dan popular and famous in the 1970s, but the polish glossed over the underlying layers of anger, disappointment, sleaze, and often downright weirdness lurking just beneath the surface. The elliptical lyrics—were—and continue to be-an endless source of fascination. What kind of person was capable of writing such songs? Donald Fagen has always kept his true self hidden behind walls of irony, confounding most journalistic enquiries. Nightfly cracks open the door to reveal the life behind the lyrics.

Iron Man chronicles the story of both pioneering guitarist Tony Iommi and legendary band Black Sabbath, dubbed "The Beatles of heavy metal" by Rolling Stone. Iron Man reveals the man behind the icon yet still captures Iommi's humor, intelligence, and warmth. He speaks honestly and unflinchingly about his rough-and-tumble childhood, the accident that almost ended his career, his failed marriages, personal tragedies, battles with addiction, bandmates, famous friends, newfound daughter, and the ups and downs of his life as an artist.

People ask me how come I'm still alive, and I don't know what to say. When I was growing up, if you'd have put me up against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us was gonna make it to the age of 60, with five kids and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and California, I wouldn't have put money on me, no f--king way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in my own words, for the first time. A lot of it ain't gonna be pretty. I've done some bad things in my time. But I ain't the devil.

Historia
From the moment their hugely influential 1978 debut landed, Van Halen set a high bar for the rock 'n' roll lifestyle, creating an entirely new style of post-'60s hard rock and becoming the quintessential rock band of the 1980s. But the high-flying success was fraught with difficulty, as Eddie struggled with alcohol and drug addiction while simultaneously battling David Lee Roth over the musical direction of the band, eventually taking the band in an entirely new direction with Sammy Hagar and scaling new heights, before that iteration of Van Halen disintegrated.

Stephen Pearcy was a scrawny, horny, thrill-seeking teenager with an electric guitar who had graduated from backyard parties in San Diego to half-empty dives in Los Angeles before he and his band broke through at Whiskey a Go Go. Cranking out metal just as metal got hot, Ratt was the perfect band at the perfect time, and their hit single "Round and Round" became a top-selling anthem.

Historia
The son of a classical pianist straight out of the Bronx of old Archie comics, Steven Tyler was born to be a rock star. Weaned on Cole Porter, Nat King Cole, Mick and his beloved Janis Joplin, Tyler began tearing up the streets and the stage as a teenager before finally meeting his "mutant twin" and legendary partner, Joe Perry. In this addictively listenable memoir, Tyler unabashedly recounts the meteoric rise, fall, and rise of Aerosmith over the last three decades and riffs on the music that gives it all meaning.

Yngwie Malmsteen's revolutionary guitar style - combining elements of classical music with the speed and volume of heavy metal - made him a staple of the 80s rock scene. Decades later, he's still a legend among guitarists, having sold 11 million albums and influenced generations of rockers since. In Relentless, Malmsteen shares his personal story, from the moment he burst onto the scene seemingly out of nowhere in the early 80s to become a household name in the annals of heavy metal.

Inspiring
Bands I loved, I found out, were taught by Satch. Hearing his music inspired me to play guitar as well as want took know more about music and its creation. This book gives you his history, writing and recording style. Musical philosophy and insight. His Co creators and friends give great details about him, his gear and his creative process. I'll be listening to it again and again. I'm so happy this is available!

Narrator needs to learn proper music pronunciations
Narrator and producer should learn music pronunciations. Barre chords pronounced "Bar-Ray" is cringeworthy. Lots of great guitar tech info. Nice resource for music producers and guitar gearheads.

So much fun! And probably the BEST narrator ever!
Where does Strange Beautiful Music rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Among the best. As a massive Satriani fan, it's so satisfying to know the most obscure and intimate details about Joe's music-making. If you're a Satch or even a guitar fan, do not miss this book. Invaluable!
What did you like best about this story?
So many interesting stories and details about his music and most importantly, his **vision** about music. Joe's vision is the guiding light of his genius.
What does Todd McLaren bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Todd McLaren is probably THE BEST narrator I've ever come across! I bought this because I'm a huge Satch fan, and to my utter delight, the narrator turned out to be SPECTACULAR! His diction, cadence, tone, everything is flawless.
Fascinating point: the way Todd reads quotes from other people (e.g. Joe's bandmates and friends). Todd changes his voice for each quote, and you know you're listening to a quote, as opposed to being confused by the sudden change of context or style. What an amazing narrator. After this, I started purchasing audiobooks just because Todd narrated them.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The stories of how the songs Cryin' and Littleworth Lane came to be :(

Very good
I was hoping for more details about his day-to-day life . The narration going back-and-forth from different guys and different voices was not enjoyable.
I wish he would've read it himself.

Satch Is The Man!!!
I'm a huge Satriani fan...and to finally hear his story, is just amazing. From the day he quit the football team, cause he heard that, Hendrix, had died...to his constant pursuit of practicing hours on end. And eventually rising to "Virtuoso" status. Satriani has remained humble, and true to his fans. And a down to earth nice guy, who always has a smile on his face.

Heard Gilbert Gottfried's book - This is WORSE.
Would you try another book from Joe Satriani and Jake Brown and/or Todd McLaren?
These keyboard-mashing dorks should be banned from ever doing anything together, again - It's the worst collaboration since prostates and age first decided to damage cell DNA.
What was most disappointing about Joe Satriani and Jake Brown ’s story?
Satriani writes about his music the way Patrick Bateman would. It reads like someone ghost-wrote it to satisfy their daughter's kidnappers, and Satriani comes off as only trying to convince himself of the validity of his artistic accomplishments as each consistently topping the last one as a "breakthrough" and gift to humanity. His compliments to himself use only the most hyperbolic of fart-sniffery, and I hope his head falls off.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
McLaren reminds me of someone trying out different voices at a McDonald's drive-thru. He makes every real person in the book (several of whom I know personally, and many of whom I've heard speak) sound like a clinically-depressed infomercial pitch-man with Down syndrome and a cleft palette. He's also totally ignorant in the subjects he's reading out loud; and mispronounces such basic terms as "Barre" and even the author's name within the first few minutes. It never gets better - I'm convinced someone told him this was a radio play intended to help terminally-ill children sleep.
What character would you cut from Strange Beautiful Music?
Joe Satriani. It turns out the guy writes with a small man's complex in EVERY medium.
Any additional comments?
I'm a fan of Joe Satriani's music, and I consider him my number-one influence when composing music for racing videogames on the Sega Saturn - No one does that better than him, and no one can rehash it over and over for thirty years better than him. Sometimes I suspect he consciously releases the same album for thirty years in a row just to see when critics will finally stop referring to him as "ahead of his time." Or maybe they're referring to his skull.
