Summary: Should have eliminated the videos
Review: I am hardcore fan of Satch. I own every cd he released, have seen him concert twice and have also met him twice. I also have a Satriani tatoo. This DVD is for us hardcore fans. Those of us who really love Satch and Vai will love this DVD. Others will find it interesting but its not one of those that focuses on the personal lives of the artists. This is about Satch's career and not his sex life. So those of you expecting to see groupies and drugs, check out the Motley Crue stuff.

The DVD has all his MTV style videos that are just straight up embarassing. The videos were made mainly so that MTV could have a reason to expose Satch to a wider audience. I was seeing the Video of Big Bad Moon and going "OH MY GOD!" It was so corny I couldnt help laughing and feeling sorry at the same time. Satch is all about the music and no show. Period. Thats just him (from what I have seen and learnt). The Videos are horrible, but the songs are GREAT!

The recording stuff is ok. They show about how he records and this and that. There are interviews of him and his producer talking about it. Its nothing great but since I love Satch so much, I was floored.

Then there are some small live performances that make the DVD worth every penny you paid for it. He is the greatest guitarist to ever step in the universe. So you can judge for yourself!

I recommend this mainly to hardcore Satriani fans (there are a few million).

Highlight: Joe playing his acoustic guitar exclusively for the documentary.

Summary: Not for whom dislike stories , intreviews or clips!!!
Review: I have all joe satriani's albums , his live dvd performance in san fracisco and g3 live performance and i wished to add it (the " satch tapes " )to my collection ( the "new" dvd 2003) but to be honest with you i dislike dvd which base on clips , stories or intreviews so i found this short dvd ( only 53 min ) unesecery for me . it has good sound - dolby digital 5.1 , the picture is good and this dvd based on three albums:
1) surfing with the alien - (always with you , satch boogie)('87)
2) flying in a blue dream- the feeling,big bad moon,i believe)(89
3) the extremist - ( the extremist from 1992)
it start with 8 min of introduction...
"the satch tapes presents a rare opportunity to get to know joe satriani through his anecdotes on live ... to get the real scoop from his closest friends ... and from steve vai...
you realy enjoy watching clips, intreviews - buy it!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Satch Tapes:Viewings of a Guitar God
Review: This is an excellent piece for any fan, the only flaw is that there isn't more of it! You'll definally get a new insight of the artist, it'll definally inspire you to play.
