Every now and then, you trip across something great you weren't expecting. I put iTunes on "spin mode" and it came up with Al Dimeola's "Race with the Devil on Turkish Highway" from the Infinite Desire collection. This was a remake of Race with the Devil on Spanish Highway. Well, on closer examination, I saw that it featured STEVE VAI.
In my best Valley Girl accent, "well duh" why didn't I notice this before, having had the CD in the collection for many years.
Steve Vai of course is the madman genius who is the heavy metal guitar virtuoso that tutored under Joe Satriani and plays G3 with him. You won't recognize Vai with short hair.
Di Meola is the fusion guitar genius virtuoso that tutored under Jazz Pianist, Chic Corea.
There is a stunning 10 minute YouTube video of the two of them jamming in Prague. Pour yourself a nice beverage, lock the door, turn up the volume, sit back and relax to this one.
