I disagree. Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is the pits.

I 2nd that. Or Racer X.

Oh man some else whose heard of Cacophony .

Everyone who played guitar from 1988-1991 knows Cacophony. Speed Metal Symphony.

I always try to tell people i know (who are really speed metal and neoclassical, etc) to give them a listen, but it never happens.

Its too bad there was only two albums , ALS FTL.

Friedman and Becker is definitely not easy stuff however you cannot even begin to compare them with the likes of Coltrane who's not only as blistering in speed and accuracy and to an extent, feel, but goes beyond that into the ventures of 'controlled' dissonant jazz improvisation. You wouldn't even know where to begin if you were to try and play one of his solos : )
