Gregg Bissonette
The Story
Drummer "Gregg Bissonette", having played sideman with many of today's master musicians, debuts with his first solo album. This time around, Gregg is joined by many big name guitarists such as Paul Gilbert, Scott Henderson, Steve Lukather, Andy Summers, Ty Tabor, Steve Vai, and more. The CD features all instrumental compositions from brother Matt Bissonette, who also produced the CD and plays bass guitar throughout. The exceptions are a cover of Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein", in which Gregg, in his drum solo, quotes sections of songs such as "Walk This Way", "Honky Tonk Woman", "Rock And Roll", "Wipeout" and Van Halen's "Get Up", and the lone vocal number, a cover of Peter Ham's "No Matter What". Enjoy the talents of the Bissonette brothers with 10 of Gregg's favorite guitarists.
