Let’s spotlight a crucial compilation from one of Japan’s most revered guitar heroes, Atsushi “Jet Finger” Yokozeki. This is “Jet Best,” a CD released on March 25, 2009, via the Soundholic label with the catalog number YZSH-9001. This particular copy includes the original obi strip.
This compilation is a celebration of Yokozeki’s incredible career, known for his “Jet Finger” moniker earned through his stunning, high-speed guitar technique. For fans, this release was highly anticipated as many of his original albums were out of print. It gathers 14 tracks that showcase his full range.
The album kicks off with his definitive signature track, “Jet Finger Fox Glove.” It also includes sought-after rarities like “Tears Of Sphinx” from the RAID project. Fans often praise Yokozeki as one of Japan’s greatest guitarists, with a level of technical skill that some feel rivals or even surpasses other legends.
However, “Jet Best” proves he is far more than just a “shredder.” It highlights his vast well of originality, unique phrasing, and his exceptional talent for crafting gentle, expressive melodies, as heard on tracks like the closer, “D.A.I.” It’s an essential collection for any fan of virtuosic Japanese hard rock and heavy metal.
