Has any one else listened to this guys music ? Just played a couple of tracks ,just now and he has may be got to be one of the best axeman in the world ever.........some his classical stuff is awsome
He is an amazing guitarist and one of my 14 year old son's guitar heroes. He has loads of his stuff but being an old person I cannot name any of it from memory. Some good stuff on You Tube which I have been made to watch
He also played on a magnificent Public Image Limited (PiL) called 'album'. If you like his playing, try and get that album, it is just fantastic. And without trying to go OT, it also features Ginger Baker on drums, Bill Laswell on bass, and Ryiuchi Sakamoto on keyboards!!!
You can also see him in the film Crossroads with Ralph Machio, they have a guitar duel towards the end of the film with Vai playing all the guitar parts.
He was also the guitarist for David Lee Roth on several of his albums

Great film, didn't Vai play the devil? Or a messenger for the devil, great music.
I often thought, if Ralph was that good at miming playing the guitar, how come he couldn't play it that well himself Sorry, we're getting on to films now, instead of Vai.
I have quite a few albums of Steve Vai on my iPod. Here is some useless information. He was trained by Joe Satriani (another guitar playing axeman and excellent at that).
The albums I have are:-
The 7th Song
Alien Love Secrets
Alive In A Ultra World
The Elusive Light And Sound Vol 1.
Fire Garden
Flex-Able Leftovers
Passion And Warfare
Real Illusions: Reflectioins
Sex And Religion
The Ultra Zone
