Great hard rockin' album from Hoey. Much of the recording is hot instrumentals but track 3 is a pretty sonic version of Peter Green's "Black Magic Woman", more rock than the original's bluesy feel and a decent vocal done by Gary. The musicianship here is very solid, Hoey is a fully capable guitarist, and bass and drums are also of high caliber. Brian Setzer guests on the disc's title track and does a nice job. "Peace Pipe" is kinda a departure in that it starts off with some pretty mellow guitar, interesting change of pace before getting some hot licks in there. I just discovered this artist recently and am thankful to have made this discovery. I own a few of his other works and they are very good also. I would definitely recommend this guy's stuff if one likes hot heavy guitar. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Guitar madness ! Start your Hoey Here. If you don't alread know Gary, classifying the music on this CD and most of Gary's stuff isn't hard -- it's classic, mostly instrumental hard rock. Gary himself is often compared with Joe Satriani or Steve Vai and clearly Joe has been a big influence on Gary--but so has Dick Dale! Still, Gary's no slave to any of his teachers and mostly he just ends up sounding like himself! So, if you're new to Gary but hard rock guitar is something you like then there's a good chance you'll like at least some of his stuff. Try the samples here. This CD is very representative of Hoey's style and skills--it also happens to be a personal favorite in those I own of his. I think if you're looking to sample Gary this would be a good place to start. Bug Alley shows clearly Gary's enormous talent and technical mastery across both Hoey originals and covers, and covering a wide range of genres. Of special note: the CD opens with "Desire" built on a classical theme (and it works!); zips thru a terrific cover of "Black Magic Woman" (one of the rare vocals, his voice is competent if nothing special); takes a lighter, bouncier swing thru the title track (a Hoey original); lays back a bit for the fantastic "Peace Pipe" track; another vocal cover follows, this time Bob Dylan's "Gotta Serve Somebody"; and eventually we get to a hard rocker version of the old drummer standard, "Wipeout", of course in Hoey's version his guitar gets a much bigger share of the fireworks! All-in-all this is a great CD that any fan of the hard rock guitar should enjoy.
