The Insanely Talented Steve Vai Thrives Live !,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Where the Wild Things Are (Audio CD)
This sterling live Steve Vai CD is utterly amazing. Vai is literally a dynamic freak of nature with his large, muscular hands and fingers being in paramount control of his array of guitars. Vai is arguably the most innately talented guitarist in history. His fretboard prowess and use of effects enable him to create a galaxy of spellbinding tones and sounds ranging from bombastic to tearful. "Where The Wild Things Are" is replete with eclectic Steve Vai classics including the emotive "Tender Surrender", "Angel Food", "Treasure Island" and riveting versions of "Freak Show Excess", "Firewall" and "Building The Church". The astounding "Now We Run" is an instrumental marvel that has been nominated for a Grammy Award. In person, Steve Vai has a mystical aura. He's a beekeeper, a strict vegetarian and a very spiritual man. It's not surprising because the Creator bestowed him with an exorbitant amount of talent evidenced by his magical guitar virtuosity and sheer energy. Buy this live CD if you like guitar mastery. Vai's also joined by an array of brilliant musicians who wonderfuly enhance the optimal quality and grandeur of his exquisite riffs and songs.

Wild things are here,

This review is from: Where the Wild Things Are (Audio CD)
I stumbled upon this CD via the live concert cut shown on TV.The first time I saw Vai he was a member of the then new David Lee Roth outfit.I did not follow him as much as Satriani but was intrigued by the musical set up and instrumentation choice for the rest of his band ie Violin etc.It reminded me more of progressive Rock then the straightforward riff rock I thought he was playing.I highly recommend this CD to everyone looking for something different,inspired and fun to listen to;one can tell these guys definitely had fun making the music.Also get the second part,it's worth your time.

More manic Vai. Nice band. Nice reprisal of past riffs. Definitely worth the purchase.
