Pretty cool Steve Vai interview

[Stramm8]

I was very fortunate to meet and hang with producer Rick Beato a few years back. He is an unbelievable musician, producer and all around great guy. A year or so ago he started putting up some real cool videos about production and theory on Facebook and now he has started an interview series. His first guest is Steve Vai. Check it out and check out some more of his other vids as well

-that's cool, Vai put on one of the best monster guitar shows I've ever seen, it was on the EAT UM AND SMILE tour, ive never heard anyone channel Eddie like Steve did, unfortunately I think he has declined since,

Beato's young son has godlike ears.....beyond perfect pitch

I saw that tour and many since and couldn't disagree more. Vai is a much more interesting musician to me now than he ever was then and his tours as a solo artist are much more to my liking.

-cool, I'm just a old dude who prefers quality of notes over quantity of notes, neither right or wrong, just my preference.

Same here. It's the quality of the music he played later which I preferred, not his speed etc.

If you know Arpeggios, Machio's shapes arent even close but i always liked Steve & the Charvels.

But even back then i couldn't figure out what Mississippi Delta Blues had to do with Steve Vai ...
