Here's an absolutely beautiful song by Jason Becker. Keep in mind the guy lost his ability to speak, let alone everything else, in 1996. The song was composed in 2017/2018 through computer software allowing him to visualize the guitar in his mind. I pretty much cry every time I hear it.
It features guest appearances by several of his former friends and quite a few fellow Shrapnel Records guys from that time, but yeah basically a list of guitar gods:
Michael Lee Firkins (Shrapnel)
Steve Vai
Joe Bonamassa
Paul Gilbert (Shrapnel, Mr. Big)
Neal Schon (Journey)
Mattias Eklundh (Freak Kitchen, produced Steve Vai)
Marty Friedman (Shrapnel, Megadeth)
Greg Howe (Shrapnel)
Jeff Loomis (Nevermore)
Richie Kotzen (Shrapnel, Winery Dogs)
Gus G. (Firewind, Ozzy, too many things to name)
Steve Hunter (session player for many big names)
Ben Woods
