Info:

This is, without question, the best hard rock album to be released in the last 20 years. Even longtime fans of Paul Gilbert will be astonished at the ferocity of the playing, the level of songwriting, the production values, and the huge soundstage Racer X achieved on this album. Their first "reunion" album, "Technical Difficulties," was just a warm-up for this one.

This is the Genesis album of Racer X, and is in itself an awesome demonstration of Rock and Roll. Gilberts terrifying guitar licks and the intense drums, bass and vocals will blow you away! If your an aspiring musician, you will enjoy Pauls guitar wizardry on this album. Also purchase Second Heat for more intense action.

Racer X - Second Heat (1988) [Japan Edition]

Artist : Racer X
Country : USA
Release : Second Heat [Japan Edition]
Year : 1988
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Compared to Racer X's first album, Second Heat takes some of its focus away from Paul Gilbert's lightning-fast guitar playing capabilities and tries to showcase the band's abilites as a whole. Jeff Smith's singing is a little more tolerable on this record than the first, sometimes its even good. The song "Scarified" pretty much fits all of the noodling I can handle for a whole album into three minutes. Also includes a solid cover of "Heart of A Lion" by Judas Priest.

Racer X - Live: Extreme Volume I & II (1988)

Live: Extreme Volume I







Live: Extreme Volume II







Artist : Racer X
Country : USA
Release : Live: Extreme Volume I & II
Year : 1988
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Racer X has always been known for their speedy licks and insane melodies. Consisting of two guitarists (who play their guitars at incredibly fast speeds, still staying in exact synchronization with each other) you will hear harmonies that you might have thought not possible to be achieved live on stage. If your looking for the sheer brutality of their speed, just listen to their solos. Each member (Paul Gilbert, Scott Travis, John Alderete, and ex-member Bruce Bouillet) has their own solo, that clearly show the power driven behind Racer X. Great picks to listen to on this album is (my personal live favorite) She Wants Control, which is a pretty bluesy song including a very chunky bridge.
Extreme Volume II is no less than Extreme Volume. What's strange is Mr. Munoz says this CD is lacking energy. How could one CD have Energy and another CD Lack energy when the recording is the same and the show was the same? It's impossible. Extreme Volume II is simply the "other songs" not on Extreme Volume. Granted, EV has all the indivdual solos, but frankly, EVII has the better songs with Heart Of Lion, Moonage Daydream, Hammer Away and the best non-KISS version of Detroit Rock City.
