Joe can write a song. And play melodic and wicked. Oh yeah.

Every song is a journey.......like the Conan soundtrack. His song titles fit the journeys perfect.

So good. He came up with the first 2 chords when he was a teenager. He was sitting on his bed after partying all night and couldn't sleep. He didn't complete the song until he made this album. Satch is the best there is no doubt. No one else has the combo of soul,innovation,song writing,technique and heart like satch does.
