Additional Facts
Jason Becker's life story is amazing and heartbreaking - at the age of 17, he recorded two CDs with Marty Friedman, followed by two amazing solo albums, leading to his win as "Best New Guitarist" in Guitar Magazine (1990). He later joined David Lee Roth's band, where he confidently filled the shoes of Roth's old bandmate Eddie Van Halen. Unfortunately, Becker contracted ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) but this did not prevent him from releasing a follow-up solo album a dozen years later.
