As far back as his first album, Not of This Earth, Satriani has had a unique sound and a highly recognizable style. In the world of instrumental rock guitar, his first album was a breath of fresh air. From the start Satriani was a composer first and technical player second. Each of the songs on his first release was a well thought-out, melodic journey of high energy and emotion. Technique was used as a means to express a melodic concept or establish a mood, not for shredding's sake as so many albums of this genre were doing at the time. One particularly groundbreaking song was the tapping showcase, yet highly melodic The Headless Horseman.
