Man, i feel bad. In 2003 I did a really long interview with Alex Skolnick for Lifestyles Magazine – then I got engaged, everything went to hell and I lost the interview tape.

Anyway, consider this a public apology for wasting your time, if you read this, Alex. My dad really dug your CD.

From Blabbermouth-

ALEX SKOLNICK TRIO, the band led by TESTAMENT guitarist Alex Skolnick, has just released two special iTunes-exclusive tracks. You can now get live versions of both “Fear of Flying” and “Transformation”, recorded at the Apache Cafe in Atlanta, GA on August 16, 2005. The songs are posted on both the main Magna Carta web site as well as on the MySpace page.

ALEX SKOLNICK TRIO’s new album, “Last Day in Paradise”, is available on Magnatude Records. The CD consists of seven original compositions along with three arrangements of hard rock “standards” (a concept upon which the trio has built a strong reputation as an instrumental group that appeals to straight-ahead jazz fans and rock fans alike).
