Carl Verheyen is a virtuoso guitarist that is equally home in the studios of Los Angeles as he is playing with his own trio or rocking out with the super group Supertramp (he has been a member since 1985). As a guitarist myself, I figured I had heard about most of my guitar heros…I have to admit that I didn’t really know who Carl was prior to Cliff Hugo mentioned him to me back in 2005. After checking out his credentials and after hearing his unique style of ripping up and down the neck of his seafoam green 1982 Stratocaster, I was hooked. Carl is the real deal.
Carl’s production holds a special distinction at AIX Records. It was the first one that I shot in HD AND it was was the first and last time that I produced a live concert as part of the production. This is a Collector’s Edition, which means it has two double sided DVDs. There is a DualDisc and a two sided DVD-Video. The two-disc set includes the following bonus features:
- HD-Audio and Video shot in HD
- Live performance
- Extensive artist Interview accompanied with photos
- Intros and discussion on the tunes
- Lyrics
- Comprehensive Bio
- Complete Discography
- Guitar Playing Video
- Photo Gallery
- Complete Tech Specs, Definitions, Test Tones
- Deluxe packaging including lyrics and photo booklet
You won’t find a better more comprehensive package featuring the work of Carl Verheyen. As one customer put it, “I just received your DVD and I wanted to thank you for putting together one of the best guitar presentations I have ever seen. The production was great and the extras (i.e. guitar discussion and master seminar) were tremendous. Very informative stuff.
This disc was shot using HD video equipment but has been downconverted to standard definition for this DVD-Video title. NOTE: The DualDisc format may not be compatible with all DVD/CD drives since it is slightly thicker than a standard disc. The DualDisc is not recommended for slot drives players.
