4/5
One of a kind
by Unsmart
Great Kat (Katherine Thomas) has on occasions been brutally slaughtered by critics, because of her very high thoughts of herself. I think this is unfair. (But people with low self-esteem tend to get irritated at people who think well of themselves.)
Beethoven On Speed is actually a good album, regardless of whether Kat is the Beethoven of the 20th century or not. Her guitar skills are good even if somewhat overrated, not only by herself. Although as fast as Yngwie Malmsteen and Vinnie Moore, she doesn't hit the notes quite as accurately.
But nevermind, this is a fun (but short - 30 mins) record. And you have to give Kat some credit for doing something original. Where most metal guitarists just seem to be clones of others, she's actually doing her own thing. Classical pieces at hyper-speed!
5/5

2/5
Good, but not original
by Boba Fatt (New York)
I respect the Great Kat. She is incredibly fast and obviously knows the guitar inside and out.
But recently in a "Guitar Player" magazine, she was whining because she hasn't gotten recognized and was also boasting how she is the greatest guitar player ever, but is "held-back" because she is female...
Well, like I said, I respect her playing, it's amazing...As far as being the best guitarist...well, that's a whole different matter. In my opinion, a guitarist is someone who CREATES their own unique sound/tone/emotion/riffs. Ritchie Blackmore and Smoke On The Water...Jimmy Page and his infamous intro to Stairyway to Heaven...B.B. King and his signature vibrato...people like this and what they bring to the guitar-table is what makes them guitar greats.
Alright, Great Kat, you can play at mind boggling speeds, but everything you play is old classical stuff. In short, you are a classical cover band. Do you think Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Jimi Hendrix, AC/DC, or any other original-material band would be so legendary if they were a cover band?
I don't think so.
3/5
As Long As She Doesn't Sing....
by I Know More About Music Than You (And I like to be brief and to the point.)
it's kind of fun to listen to this. Guaranteed to starch the eyebrows of classical music buffs. But when she opens her mouth....
this is one Kat that you wished stayed in the bag. I really give it 2 1/2 stars because of her wretched singing. Thank the devil a lot of the songs are instrumentals. Her web page cracks me up. It's so 80s.
4/5
sexy shredder who can really play fast
by MetalMike (Florida, USA)
The Great Kat is a very fast player, Classicly trained and has the sexy look down. It is good fun shred. I love to play her real loud at a stoplight early on my way to work. People have just not heard anything like it before. just do not pay anything over 8 bucks for any of her cd,s. go to Kat.com she has all her stuff for sale there. MORE LEADS IN METAL,
