- Biography of Jason Becker
Jason Becker, the closest thing that rock guitar has had to a “prodigy” in its history, was stricken with ALS in his early 20s. That makes this DVD all the more priceless because Jason is unable to play now. Not much of the video here seems to be professionally shot, but the content is amazing! Loads of footage of Jason in his prime, including the maestro giving a guitar clinic, some home studio footage, and some performance footage of Jason in the band Cacophony with his friend and co-guitarist Marty Friedman.
Jason Becker is an impressively gifted Rock Guitar player. He comes from the 80’s shredder school that gave us Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen and others.
At the end of that decade he got sick and couldn’t play again. Here you have a chance to see some of his best performance, live and in the format of video clinics. If you love Rock Guitar, you will love this DVD. It is simply AWESOME.
