There are few true musical geniuses out there now a days. Trevor is one of them. I am so thankful that we have him around. He has come a long, long way from Rabbitt. It is just mind boggling that he never took a guitar lesson in his life. ........To All aspiring musicians you need to learn the piano....... It will take you a long way. Look what it did for Trevor. He was a member of the band Rabbitt ( the South African equivelent of the Beattles). He almost single handedly resurrected YES, and he is now a successful composer. Learn your theory. and dont always play to be flashy

I'm a huge fan of Trevor Rabin and his work for almost 20 years. I think he is one of the best guitar players I've ever known not only for his solid musical education but also for his refined, classy style of playing the guitar.

I think he's competent and down to earth. His work as a score composer is very good and as I've been following his work for so long I know he's just gonna get better.

I'm very glad he's still in business and even happier he's going to be in business it looks like for a long time.

I wish him always my best and all the success he so very much deserves.
