Vinnie Moore
Mind's Eye
The Story
"Mind's Eye" was Vinnie Moore's first instrumental solo record for the Shrapnel label, and is a true shredfest from top to bottom. When the CD was first released in 1986, it helped Moore to win Guitar Player Magazine's reader's poll "Best New Talent" award. "Mind's Eye", which also features Tony MacAlpine on keyboards, the great Tommy Aldridge (Ozzy Osborne, Pat Travers, Whitesnake) on drums and Andy West (The Dregs) on bass, has Moore in his neo-classsical mode on tunes such as "In Control" and the standout track "Hero Without Honor".
