Phi Yaan-Zek's third solo CD release 'Solar Flare' is an exceptional compositional tour-de-force played with incredible fire. Featuring German Über drummer Marco Minnemann, keyboard virtuoso Lalle Larsson, and multidynamic bassist Fabio Trentini, the music is a dynamic adventure that recalls the energy of the Mahavishnu Orchestra, Steve Vai-like guitar intensity, Zappa style quirkiness, and the passionate performances of Jeff Beck. The album also features a whole cast of other guest instrumentalists, including Peter Stacey on flute/saxophone, and Gryphon bassoonist Brian Gulland among others. An exquisite CD production, 'Solar Flare' is beautifully packaged with a 12-page full-color booklet containing fantastic graphics, session details, and exclusive song liner notes.
