If you are a fan of Megadeth, you need no introduction to
Chris Poland - the man who ripped out half the guitar work for the band
along with founder Dave Mustaine. You've heard his playing on the
classics "Peace Sells...but Who's Buying?", "Devil's Island", and more,
and know all about his flowing, legato style. Then again, you might know
Chris as the west coast fusion player instead, who tore through the
clubs 20 years ago with his band The New Yorkers.
If you're new to Chris Poland, you might only have heard his amazing
work with Damn the Machine or his solo project or maybe his main gig,
OHM:. Even many a Poland fan don't know about the wide scope of his
career, but Chris Poland is pouring out fresh ideas faster than they can
be recorded.
