Jason Becker who is a legendary guitar shredder from the 80’s was diagnosed with ALS and paralyzed for life. Although he isn’t able to move his body and can’t even speak, that is still not stopping him for doing what he loves…making music. Even when he isn’t able to play guitar or any instrument, he is still able to play keyboards by using special computer software that allows him to make music by making eyes and mouth movements to make notes that he hears in his head.

Congrats to Jason, and the new album sounds good. I’d like to get the album myself.
