May 2017 and still the best cover. This Korean guy first uploaded his cover of Altitudes on a Korean website called mule (뮬) where Korean guitarists upload their covers & originals. If I remember correctly, he had about 5~6 covers uploaded to this website and this was back in 2004-2006. I also remember him writing in the comments section saying that he was in his late 20's and he is not a professional guitarist - he played guitar as a hobby. I imagine he is now busy being an average adult making ends meet, supporting his family, and not having time to play/upload his covers. Whatever the situation is, I wish him well and I thank him for this amazing cover.

Most rockers don't know who Jason Becker is until they push themselves to be better rmusicians and start looking for real musical inspiration. He was and is one of the greatest rock guitar players that God has ever devised. It's awesome that he is still writing and his music is still being played in his brilliant style.

Me emociona el estilo y técnica con el que tocas esta pieza... la veo desee hace más de 15 años... y me transporta a esas épocas... nostálgicas...
