@JoeDog345 If you see Satriani enough times live you will eventually hear him play just about everything he has ever recorded. I never cease to be amazed at the stuff he busts out at his shows. I have heard him play stuff I never thought he would do live. But then again, he is just that damn great.
My favorite song from this album "Oriental Melody" , no It's got to be "Mind Storm", then again "Hill Groove", maybe it's "Belly Dancer". I'm so confused how do I pick a favorite song?
@TommittajaFIN How can you say such a thing? The main melody was completely identical! Granted Satriani played it, while Coldplay used it as a vocal melody but it was the same melody over the exact chord progression.
@TommittajaFIN Their guitarist is a big Satriani fan, so the melody might just got stuck in his head and he might have thought it's his idea. That's what I think happened.
Great track but the track title is completely out of whack... This melody is not oriental but rather South Asian, Middle Eastern and Persian flavor. I know this because I lived in all three regions. Joe, you are awesome, but this is a bit amateurish.
Middle Eastern/Arabic Music is classified as Oriental. Satriani's title is completely correct. It's confusing for those that think of Oriental as applying only to the Far East but as far as the Arts go it applies to the whole Arab region.
Oriental not equal to middle east. I think you have to look it up and stop advertising your ignorance. Or maybe you need to understand English so you can understand my comment. middle east is nothing like far east, which is consider oriental. I know cuz I lived there 15 years. I suppose you just read about it.
true man..this album is sooo underrated. It deserved more!
I adore Satriani! He is such an oasis to this stagnant music point.
I love the album this song is from - Strange Beautiful Music. One of my fav...
This is brilliant! ... He plays a lonely that the studio recording that in live performances..

There was never an album for this show was there?
Is this a DVD?
can you remember that set list? because I saw him in 2002 and I can't figure out which tunes he played!!
I heard it was his sister who draws on some of his guitars
I think he meant live album.
how does he do all this playing in the dark with shades on??
He never plays songs from this album anymore.
what effect did he use starting 0:43?
Chorus.
