Rating: - A Stunning Compilation, by a stunning guitarist!

This collection of three of Vai's best albums truely show us what a musician he is. His style of song writting is 'twisted' yet so effective and melodic.

Tracks such as 'Erotic Nightmares', Sex And Religion', 'Bad Horsie', and 'I Would Love To' all have the most memorable rock riffs. Yet Vai's Ballads 'For The Love Of God', 'Touching Tongues', and 'Tender Surrender' all display his brilliant talent for slow, emotional, melodic song writting.

He is arguably one of the best guitarists in the world at present!

Buy this album, you won't regret it.

Rating: - a great guitar album

I've heard it being said that you have to be a guitar player to appreciate the true genius of Steve Vai. I disagree with this statement totally, as I don't play the guitar but I know true genius when I hear it and on this album Steve proves that he ranks up their with Hendrix, Page, Springsteen and Clapton as one of the greatest guitarists of all time. However unlike these 4 he did not have any vocals to share the song with and is forced to captivate thee listener with the sound of the guitar alone and incredibly the manages to achieve this, elevating the complexity of the music with each track o the album. Although I don't think it's his best album, it's not far off as songs like "For The Love OF God" and "The Riddle" go to prove. Generally the album is fast paced but at the same time its incredibly intense and yet in places quite tranquil. Steve will take you on a journey that no other guitarist will be able to take you on and this album is highly recommended.
