For many Surfing With The Alien is one of the most important guitar albums of the 80s and granted its author Joe Satriani a reputation as a virtuoso of the guitar and entering the olympus of the great guitarists of all time.
Published in 1987 the album contains fast and complex songs like "Surfing with the Alien" and "Satch Boogie", in contrast to songs like "Always With Me, Always With You" and "Echo" that are quite slow and melodic.
Also notable is "Midnight", which uses the two-handed tapping technique at high speed.
For millions of instrumental rock fans, the album has become essential.
In the already mythical cover appears the Marvel Comics character, Silver Surfer.
