“Phil Collen adds his huge tone, personality and unique vibrato to ‘Nineteen Eighty’ to deliver a pure rock, a la 1980, and totally authentic improvisational tour de force. And, he did it with his shirt on!” – Joe

Phil Collen (Def Leppard) plays a stirring version Joe Satriani’s “Nineteen Eighty” alongside the backing track from Joe’s new release “Stripped x Three”. Joe’s new album of songs with the lead and melodies removed is available NOW for pre-order at http://satriani.com/discography/Stripped_x_Three/

“At the heart of it is my love for composing unique and moving music for the electric guitar. I love the journey as much as the end result. With this compilation of backing tracks you get to peak behind the curtain a bit and experience that journey as I built the songs in the studio. And, of course, you can play along!” – Joe Satriani

The release features full backing tracks from the complete “Shapeshifting,” “Black Swans and Wormhole Wizards” and “Is There Love in Space?” albums, a special digital compilation booklet with original liner notes and credits and it is all packaged within a replica Joe Satriani Ibanez signature guitar USB stick and custom case.
