    Very cool video, interesting to learn of other guitarists early inspirations and musical ideas that caught their attention. I started playing exclusively on an acoustic and focused a fair bit on the kind of 'Mel Bay' book approach and learning a bit of basic fingerstyle playing. However, one day a family friend put me onto Joe Satriani via the 'Dreaming #11' EP and the 'Time Machine' album. Suddenly I heard Satriani's 'Hordes of Locusts' and almost every moment of track was amazing to me. It was heavy (by my standard at the time!), it was full of energy and technique that I was completely unfamiliar with. Joe was getting tones and sounds out of his electric that was so unfamiliar to me at the time.... his control over artificial and pinched harmonics and his squeals and dives, his whammy bar work, the middle-eastern tonality of the piece, the legato lines that covered so much fretboard territory so quickly .... it was a moment for me.
    Not long after 'Hordes of Locusts', I got Satriani's 'The Extremist' album and then the track 'War' came on... I don't know if it's the middle-eastern tonalities, but whatever it was, War was just so awesome to me. I didn't realise until much later (on getting the tab book) that War was recorded with the instruments tuned half a step down. It's a relatively simple tuning adjustment but it makes a heck of a difference to the 'attitude' of 'War'.
    I remember being so excited by Satriani's solo in 'War', he starts off with a pentatonic, bluesy run and then exploits the massive drive and pulse of the music as he builds intensity and does a whammy bar slamming trick that reminded me so much of some sort of 'Ghostbusters' theme song! 'War' was a HUGE influence on my playing, no question.
