Scar Symmetry – The Unseen Empire

Mr. Big – What If…
I GET THE FEELING is another classic MR BIG sounding tune that will please all followers of the group. The Japan only bonus track UNFORGIVEN should have been released on every version as it’s a great album closer with some of Paul Gilbert’s best riffs in a long time.
