Joe Satriani has paid tribute to his long-time guitar tech, Mike Manning, with a new instrumental track.
Manning, born in 1956, recently passed away after spending much of his career as Satriani’s right-hand six-string man. Satch’s somber lead lines on Mike Manning (1956 - 2024) – which are delivered with a thick, warm, and fuzzy tone atop a sea of mournful, swathing keyboard textures – are a fitting way to immortalize his spirit.
