Guitarist
Joey Tafolla delivers an undistinguished set of standard neoclassical shred instrumentals on
Out of the Sun. Patterning himself after mentor
Tony MacAlpine (who does exactly the same thing, but better, on his albums),
Tafolla copies everything right down to the melodramatic song titles ("Eternity's End," "Truce With Kings"). He shows plenty of talent, but not much personality here. On this early effort, Taffola hasn't found his voice yet.
