remember the old NME headline re Freddy Mercury - 'Is this man a prat?'

I'm sure that entire orchestra...

... are desperately holding in some powerful hoots of derisive laughter...

It's the stunt guitar equivalent of

Evel Kneivels Snake River Canyon leap.

While we're being OTT

I always have a soft spot for this...

For those who don't know, Ralphie has to "fight" Vai to get the old fellow's soul back. The gent in the black suit is, of course, the Devil.

The slide bits are Ry Cooder, and both "classical" parts are Steve Vai (who cutely assured a guitar mag that he did intend to make the mistakes.) To his credit Vai also acknowledged that he learned as much from watching Ry Cooder warming up as he did at Berkeley.

Also, the Yng wouldn't get near it....

Is this an example of

complete bollocks?

Steve Turner | 24 April 2010 - 5:37pm

No...

It is complete and utter bollocks

Shred Basset.

Every time the camera cuts away

It's so you can't see the brass section making "wanker" signs behind his back.

YJM is ver good at playing blindingly fast arpeggios and all the other axe-tricks.

He's a shite guitarist, though.

without the Japanese orchestra obviously

A triumph of technique over taste...

...and why is it that poodle permed lead guitarists only play solos on the highest notes of their guitars?

Mr Sparks | 25 April 2010 - 5:45pm

its a good example of why "more is less" when it comes to guitar

but why is he dressed like King Charles II? God, I hate this sort of pompous self indulgent shite with a vengeance.

Why the mockery?

I believe that to have been a stunning and emotive piece of playing.

I also believe if you eat enough bananas you can live without breathing. And that Prince Phillip is descended from boiled eggs.
