Rather than list all the old releases I wanted to just concentrate on his last 3 releases

Is there love in space? -I really like this album, especially the songs "If I could fly" and "Drifting"

Super Colossal- A stripped down album (less effects) but very melodic, not a bad album but pretty average for Satriani.

Professor Satchafunkilus and the Musterion of Rock - This album is Joe Satriani at his best, truly an incredible album!

So Professor Satch gets my vote

Which of these 3 do you feel is his strongest work?

I read gushing praise for Super Colossal in a guitar magazine. I heard it for myself, and thought it was poor. Too much repetition, weak material and that awful modern guitar sound which sounds like it has been recorded straight to the board. The whole production sounded digital and fatiguing to listen to.

I got the impression that it was a one-man studio effort, - very sterile.
