True to Vai form, this Passion & Warfare edition of Alien Guitar Secrets goes way beyond the call of educational and inspirational duty for any student of guitar, at any level of play. Vray c4d mac. In the first half of this interactive video masterclass, three-time GRAMMY Award winner Steve Vai shares priceless insight and ingenious methods to help you discover and unlock your personal musical identity -- the very same approaches he used to achieve his own mastery of the instrument and unparalleled success as a professional musician. Topics and methods presented in the first half of the course include: 3-Step Manifestation, Deeper Than Technique, Develop Your Tone, Exercises Build Chops, Theory, Scales & Colors, Training Your Inner Ear, The Fragrance of Chords, Intonation, Bending Notes, Vibrato, Dynamics & Phrasing, The Dimension of Listening, and The Quality of Thought. In the second half of the masterclass, Steve treats you to revealing overviews, with select playing examples, for each of the songs on his groundbreaking Passion and Warfare album -- highly regarded as one of the greatest instrumental rock guitar recordings of all-time.

Passion and Warfare song overviews include: Liberty, Erotic Nightmares, The Animal, Answers, The Riddle, Ballerina 12/24, For the Love of God, The Audience Is Listening, I Would Love To, Blue Powder, Greasy Kid's Stuff, Alien Water Kiss, Sisters, and Love Secrets. Steve also gives you a quick rundown of his guitar and gear in a Gear Talk segment. The video masterclass (Windows, Mac, and iOS compatible) features 4+ hours of video lessons, tab/notation for select playing examples (for complete transcriptions and notation, pick up the published by Hal Leonard). Steve also generously includes the Passion and Warfare Naked Tracks for all of the songs on the album (original tracks from the album minus the lead guitar track) along with 6 live video performances including Liberty, The Animal, Answers, For the Love of God, The Audience Is Listening, and Sisters.

From what I've seen, it doesn't have a ton of mistakes, but there are still a few and some of them are pretty bad as far as representing what he's actually doing. Overall it's a good book if you like having something to read along to and don't take it 100% for granted, note for note. The songs you listed only use 6 strings except FTLOG, which has about 3 notes on the low B that you can simulate with a little whammy bar drop if you want, and which Vai changes up and stays an octave higher live. Blue Powder is also a 6, and the Animal is too (he uses a sub-5th harmonizer on a 6 string to make the lower notes that sound like 7-string range). He actually used a Universe for most of the record so the '6 string' songs aren't really all played on a 6, they just don't use the low B. I think Sisters was on a Jem for sure, he said that in an interview.

There aren't many 6 strings songs (i have a seven string now, 5 yrs after i bought the book so im finally happpy) actually bakerman, while youre 'here'.

Do you happen to know if that last tapping super run at the end of 'blue powder' is correcT? Ive been working on it and ive got it up to speed, but its very hard to hear whats happening in the song.

Most of it sounds right, but the middle section gets buried in the mix, so its really hard to hear if what im playing is right or not. Just a thought. Did you end up seeing the outcome of my m.romeo thread? If you didn't, turns out the tapping run is actually from 'smoke and mirrors' not 'out of the ashes'.
