Every once in awhile I discover a new instrumental guitar album that reaffirms my long-standing belief that "Shred" will never die. I missed out on Rusty Cooley's solo album several years ago, and I am glad that Lion Music recently reissued the album because it is easily one of the better guitar albums in years. Even his band Outworld released an impressive album. He's shredded with Derek Sherinian, and is forming a new band with Derek. Naturally, I had to speak with Rusty and learn more about him as a musician, as an instructor, and as a person. We spoke live on-air for over 40 minutes, and not only did I really enjoy our conversation but I actually feel like I learned something about the music & the instrument.
