Nostalgia! I gotta admit, I knew this was gonna be one of the winners the first time I saw it.

[radiogalaxy]

@xWickedXRabbitx Thanks wicked one!! 

[musicman817993]

NICE COVER! what did you learn i'm a vai addict and don't have music for this one? did you use a book or a guitar pro file or what?

[radiogalaxy]

@musicman817993 .. years of listening to this song and letting every note sink in. There's a book for Alien Love Secrets which is pretty accurate on the tabs. I'm sure you can also find some Guitar Pro tabs for it as well. Good luck and take it phrase by phrase. Also, Guthrie did a really great in depth tutorial on the whole song in Lick Library's Learn to play Steve Vai Vol. 2. Check it out! \m/.(O_o).\m/

[benchmat]

wonderful......I remembered some element of Jimi Hendrix.....now i come to believe that this song is inspired by JH.....

[radiogalaxy]

@benchmat Thanks. Yes, the song that inspired Steve on this track was Hendrix's Villanova Junction, which you can see him play at the end of his set at Woodstock.

[s6y9l]

Wow. How can you play that without making all those faces???

[southparkmerda]
