And I&#8217;m a big fan of his solo work and <strong>CACOPHONY<\/strong> and, of course, other <strong>MEGADETH<\/strong> years, and I had a chance to meet him two times and have great conversations about music and about life with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;I have some guest musicians, guest guitarists on my new album, and guess what? <strong>Marty Friedman<\/strong> is one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">&#8220;I&#8217;m so happy to have <strong>Marty Friedman<\/strong>.
