I agree, and there should have been more guest musicians from the Tampa scene.

But i cant complain with James Murphy & Terry Butler!

Man, Terry Butler wasn't good enough to be in Death when he was in Death.

Get the lads from Atheist and Cynic together to do the whole damn thing.

hmmm, intriguing, but some people do not deserve to be involved in this project - there are so many other deserving people that are being overlooked

True - and i'm actually surprised the Human crew is not participating.

************************
Guitarist James Murphy (ex-TESTAMENT, DEATH, OBITUARY) has posted the following message at DEATH’s official website (www.emptywords.org) regarding the upcoming Death tribute project, Within The Mind - In Homage To The Musical Legacy Of Chuck Schuldiner, due out through Mascot Records in June.
“Tonight Richard Christy (Death, Control Denied, Iced Earth, Burning Inside) confirmed his appearance on the Within The Mind project.
Richard will play on a total of 4 tracks which originate on the Human and Individual Thought Patterns albums. He will spend the next week or so refreshing his memory and sharpening his chops on those songs and then I will join him at his Orlando warehouse the following weekend forsome intense rehearsals after which we will enter a local Orlando studio (ARS is the most likely choice) and lay down his tracks.
We're very excited and honored to have Richard on board and his tracks will be the first to be recorded for the project! Soon after I will begin rehearsals with Dave Culross and he will record the majority of the remaining drum tracks.
Also noteworthy: at last night's OPETH concert in Tampa, drummer Martin Lopez expressed his interest in playing at least one track on the Within The Mind project. Schedules permitting, I will try hard to make certain that he does!
More news as it develops....”

Christy's a decent drummer but he's no Sean Reinert, that's for sure. Not even Martin Lopez comes close.

Lopez is still quality tho!
