    If you just listen to the song without the visuals, you'll realise every note has its purpose and the showmanship is simply his unique expression of that note. Absolute legend.

    I hate to break it to ya, but this is the music video, not a live performance. He's mimicking his guitar part, you're hearing the album track. That's not taking away anything from Steve, he's my favorite guitar player. Period. In a genuine live performance, he feels it just as hard, with less hair touching 😊

    Off stage Steve Vai is just a guy. No performative vibe, no rock star persona. Just a dude. Not kidding.
    If any of the rest of us could play half as well, we'd have trouble fitting our skulls through a door for all the ego we'd carry around with us.

    I’m not a guitar player and only know Steve Vai from hearing his name on radio commercials when he would come to town for guitar conventions and whatnot. After watching his RUclips channel, I’m certain he’s fully aware of how silly his theatrics are. He seems like such a nice, genuine, often self deprecating guy on his YT vids from home.

    Hi Guys, Apologies if you have already seen it, but if not, please react to Tina S cover of Dragonforce - Through the Fire & Flames, she was 15 when she recorded it, Even Herman Li has reacted to it, and said it was the best cover!! She also has a cover of Steve Vai - For the Love of God, which is just as good.

  • @ortheosapolloson1197
    @ortheosapolloson1197 4 месяца назад

    The expressionism in his performance is very primal. The song is "tender surrender", a song clearly very sensual, very sexual, very primal. Why should his performance be anything less than exactly that? "For the love of god" is another very well written composition of his which has a vastly different performative expression. As a content creator, writer and lover of music, I'm of the mind that every performance should be befitting of the song and emotion brought forth in it, making each song and performance unique unto itself.

  • @yeesenchai
    @yeesenchai 4 месяца назад

    It's so scripted because it is, Vai said he would just improvise a bunch of stuff over the backing and then picked out interesting stuff off the recordings and then stitch them together.

  • @R.senals_Arsenal
    @R.senals_Arsenal 5 месяцев назад

    Very cool. Gotta love Vai. I've seen him in Zappa performances and he was young and still learning to be performative, but then later when he joined David Lee Roth he got a crash course in how to play to a large audience, which he carried into Whitesnake, and then his solo work. For the Love of God is a great next step for Sam, and I would also suggest Candle Power, Greenish Blues, Sisters, Whispering a Prayer, or Blue Powder, just to lean into the bluesier tunes.

    • @JackJenningsGuitarist
      @JackJenningsGuitarist  5 месяцев назад +1

      Hello thank you theses are amazing suggestions, Greenish Blues is a really interesting track and Candle Power I need to come back to that one.
      I love that Halloween performance of Zappa's band with Steve Vai, 1981 I think it was. So great to hear those complex arrangements but with a guitar player that could keep up with those crazy difficult parts. Zappa really got something out of Vai that many no other guitarist could have provided back then.
      Thanks for watching the video.

      @@JackJenningsGuitarist I also saw him playing in Zappa's band around 1979 /1980 at Hammersmith Odeon as I recall. He was young but a very noticeable member of the band. Frank gave him the chance to really let rip on a few of the solos during the show and they also played off each other a fair bit. I remember thinking he was amazing back then - but then to be in the Zappa band......you kinda had to be 🙂
