In 2005, Michael released his highly anticipated cover/tribute/studio album, Hands Without Shadows, which featured guest appearances from such musicians as Mark Tremonti (of Alter Bridge fame), Rudy Sarzo (of Ozzy Osbourne, Quiet Riot, Whitesnake and Dio fame) and virtuoso newcomer Bill Peck. In 2006, DVD Speed Kills 2 was released, in addition to the first in the new Hands Without Shadows series, Performance. Batio's latest release came in 2007, when his first two albums - No Boundaries and Planet Gemini - were remixed and remastered with additional drums, for an album entitled 2 X Again; the title of a song from the first album. Angelo also released three DVDs in 2007: Speed Kills 3, 25 Jazz Progressions and MAB Jam Session.

Speed Kills 3 ” by Michael Angelo Batio features 4 live performance pieces. A live performance of the song x“Progp”, a fantastic version of e“The Blues ” where MAB holds what has become known as h“The Noteo” for an entire section of the song along with 2 new “Monster Licksd”! s“SK3t” also features 28 exercises demonstrating everything from extended Alternate picking soloing concepts to numerous melodic arpeggiog’s in several different styles. As an extra bonus, we have included the backing tracks to all of the 4 g“SK3i” performance pieces so you can play your own versions to original and authentic MAB tracks! &“Speed Kills 3&” is a 3 camera video shoot and the production in every area is outstanding.

The first Speed Kills DVD begins with Michael Batio playing a lightening fast but interesting electric guitar solo. After just a few minutes of watching I started to laugh out loud. You know, the kind of involuntary, puzzled laugh that bursts forth when a magician does something truly unexpected and unbelievable.

According to the author, Michael Angelo Batio, “Speed Kills was created to be the ultimate guitar lesson on speed picking technique. This course concentrates on speed techniques that challenge even the most advanced players. Even so, an intermediate guitarists can begin working with this and expect incredible gains.g”
