Today's Instrumental Metal Track is brought to you by the extremely talented virtuoso Jason Becker. This is off of his 1988 debut solo album Perpetual Burn. Not long after this album was released, Jason was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease and was given 3-5 years to live.
Although he did eventually lose his ability to play guitar, walk, and speak, he is still alive and and continues to compose music. He now communicates with his eyes using a system developed by his father and has remained mentally sharp despite his illness.
