My favorite Steve Vai record, to this day! Got a fresh copy and was blasting in yesterday in the nice weather; perfect! What's your favorite track?! ------------- "I am so prog, I listen to concept albums on shuffle." -KMac2021 |

It’s actually the only Steve Vai album I have and I love every second of it. It’s hard not to vote for the amazing For The Love Of God but I won’t because I’m sure it’s gonna win this one. I’ll go for Blue Powder. |

I have to agree with Sagichim. I adore "For the Love of God". But "Blue Powder" is the sound of my soul being played on an Ibanez Jem Series!!! However, I almost voted for "Love Secrets" due to its backstory and overall weirdness. Hey, I ain't called Cylli for no reason!!!  ------------- (Insert Clever Words Here)<br />I'm actually this guy: <a href="https://www.progarchives.com/Collaborators.asp?id=17597" rel="nofollow">Cylli Kat</a><br /> |

Awesome choice and posts, guys!  This is by far my favorite Vai album. I know all the licks by ear like you'd learn lyrical lines, lol. Greasy Kid's Stuff is my track; fantastic rhythm guitar happening under there, sounds like 7/8?  ------------- "I am so prog, I listen to concept albums on shuffle." -KMac2021 |

I've always thought Erotic Nightmares was a monster song, so that one gets my vote. ------------- ...Histoires Sans Paroles... |

The ex-wife ended up with my copy of the Hal Leonard Book of Steve's own transcriptions for P & W. [Correction/Clarification: the ex-wife ended up with ALL my sheet music and/or tab books, plus every issue and back issue of Guitar Player magazine from '75 onward, and every issue of Guitar World and Guitar for the Practicing Musician to boot. - And she doesn't even play!!!  grrr]But I found these online: https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/steve-vai/greasy-kids-stuff-guitar-pro-234310 https://www.songsterr.com/a/wsa/steve-vai-greasy-kids-stuff-tab-s54622t0 Apparently, it's 4/4 & 5/4! ------------- (Insert Clever Words Here)<br />I'm actually this guy: <a href="https://www.progarchives.com/Collaborators.asp?id=17597" rel="nofollow">Cylli Kat</a><br /> |

I haven't listened to this album in a really long time, but I will change that.
