The annual Gods Festival in England marked the official debut of Jeff Scott Soto as a solo artist. Jeff has one of the most prolific careers in hard rock music, having been involved with numerous artists such as Yngwie Malmsteen, Talisman, Axel Rudi Pell, Eyes, Takara and countless others. Jeff's set was hailed the highlight of the festival and when reflecting on the very day such giants in the melodic rock world such as Eric Martin (Mr. Big) Harem Scarem, Hardline and Honeymoon Suite also graced the stage then this was no small achievement. The set takes us on a nostalgic trip through Jeff's musical journey, including favourites from his past and present.

Inspired by the flamboyance of Hendrix, the digitally dexterous Swede started out playing in bands, but it wasn't long before he was putting his name (and what a name!) to line-ups skilled enough to support a six-string style that leans as much towards the world of classical music as that of rock. In the course of an ongoing career that encompasses ground-breaking music, global gigging, award winning albums, and as many front covers & critical backslaps as one lifetime can sensibly handle, Malmsteen has virtually reinvented the guitar as an instrument to be seen with - as this concert in the Land Of The Rising Sun clearly demonstrates…
