Rubina is the third track from the 1986 album Not of This Earth

Rubina is an emotional track by guitarist Joe Satriani, featured on his debut album, Not of This Earth, released in 1986. It is the third track on the album and the recorded album version is 5 minutes 50 seconds in length. The track is notable for the use of the harmonics technique by Satriani. The chord progression is G major to E minor.

The track remains one of his more popular songs which Satriani still performs regularly at his latest concerts with slight adaptation. Often during live performances, the song starts of with an arpeggio section which can be heard at the beginning of the song "Turkey Man," which is featured on the album Additional Creations.
