GMC Forum _ Bands and Guitarists _ Best Steve Vai Album?

Posted by: DeepRoots Sep 2 2007, 07:05 PM

I recently heard Vai's for the love of God, live with some orchestra- and it was amazing. Blew me away completly. I was wondering what Vai albums i should buy for this kind of Vai material...you guys have any favourites or suggestions?

I have Alien Love Secrets and Tender Surrender is an amazing guitar ballad like For The Love of God but then with more sounds.

Well, if you want the orchestrated versions, Vai's new album is Sound Theories Vol I and II, i think they were sold on his site for a short time, but arent released properly yet, but thats all his orchestra pieces with the metropole orchestra.

Best would be to get all of his albums biggrin.gif

Alien Love Secrets, Passion And Warfare, Alive in an ultra world...

You won't miss whatever album you get! smile.gif

Alive In An Ultra World.

It has Whispering A Prayer, and next to Iron Maidens Powerslave that is my all time favorite song!! smile.gif

My two favourites are weirdly enough the two that didn't get a great reaction from the press.
But,
I LOVE
Sex and Religion and the Ultrazon.
Thjey are my favourites.

OR you could get the lossless (FLAC) version of Steve Vai - The Infinite Steve Vai An Anthology (2CD), for a quick taste of what he has to offer.

+1 and his stuff with Zappa -particularly the Shut and Play set. Maybe I'm being controversial but I just find that earlier stuff more interesting musically.

Cheers,
Tony
