    Jason Becker writes about this album:

    "I have had ALS since I was almost 20 years old. I'm going on 26 now. I was a guitarist until this disease swiped that little skill (for the time being, anyway). I wrote songs and recorded four albums. But as my guitar playing dwindled, something else in my music got better. Something indefinable. Every song on this album was done during this time. They are like little kids. My mother calls them her grandsongs."
    "It has crippled my body and speech, but not my mind..."
- ALS or Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

    Jason says: "These songs were all recorded so I wouldn't forget them as possible songs for some CD. I never planned on releasing these versions, but as I listened to this stuff, I thought, "hey, it isn't right to hide this neat music." So here you go. I hope you get as big of a rush listening to it as I do."

    The quality of the songs put here do not reflects the original recorded song, they're of limited resolution, due to server disk space limitations, and again, to encourage you to buy the original record.
    I will not going to place full songs here because of this. :(
