"While David Chastain is not enjoying the popularity he once did when other guitar heros like Ynwie, Tony MacAlpine, Joe Satriani, were also getting airplay, it still seems that guitar players and any lovers of music can appreciate the technical ability demonstrated on this disk. The "neoclassical" thing may have been overdone but Chastain always seems accessible. Having seen him live, it is inspiring to watch. I think his instrumental disks are best since the vocalists in his various band incarnations have typically been weak-links."

"I love this CD along with the Chastain CD of around the same time The 7th of Never. The production is crystal clear and heavy. The music is awesome of many different styles all within Chastain's own style and never wimping out. Unfortunately the follow up Voice of the Cult was very disappointing - avoid. P.S. This is an instrumental album."
A masterpiece!!!!!

"This is a true masterpiece of instrumental guitar, but if you want to get the best album in this gengre, try "Within the Heat", the follow-up to "Instrumental Variations"."
