I know vai is obviously linked to roth but its not that transparent in regards to technique. Vai is amazing and a hero of mine but so is angelo, 2 different style elegies but still........

angelo is obviously faster and has more skill in regards to shredding and the 4 axe dimensia!

whats your view guys

There really is no competition here, Steve-O wins easily. Michael Angelo Batio is just a gimmick act who relies purely on speed alone to sell his gimmick (just like Herman Li and the rest of Dragonfuck). Vai wins because he's more soulful and actually injects some spirit into his runs. It's like Les Paul said: "A man can do more with one note, as long as it's the right one, than a guy can with twenty quick ones"

Michael Angelo is probably the worst Yngwie Malmsteen clone ever...and the one big reason to hate Yngwie Malmsteen was that shitheads like Michael Angelo came down the tailpipe as a result of the first Rising Force album...

Nitro was fucking PAINFULLY bad...

That being said, I've never cared for Steve Vai, but at least Steve Vai can actually do something with his instrument other than speed around the fretboard doing nothing and fuck off with it...

Steve takes it...

The solo to this song still kicks major butt over anything Vai ever did...

Elvis, I respect your opinions on music, but I gotta disagree on this one bro'.

Sure it's fast as hell, and no doubt impossible to play, but it seems like there no begining, middle or end. A little forgettable ot these ears...

I'm not a huge Vai fan, but I'd rather listen than that any day...

That Freight Train solo is classic metal...

I had totally forgotten about Morongelo and would have preferred to keep it that way. Thanks a lot. What a pain to the ears that fucker is. He has as much style and skill as a crackhead shop teacher scratching music notes on a chalk board.SCREEEEEECH..............:rolleyes:

Not a big Vai fan but he wins by a cool mile here.

Hell yes!!!!
Also, give Pauls "GET OUT OF MY YARD" CD a listen.
Me thinks this effectively kills the whole Vai Or Michael Angelo Batio bullshit.

"Get out of my yard" is extremely good! Paul Gilbert ranks high on my list. I liked Vai when he played with Alcatrazz and Dave, but that Batio-guy is just plain boring to me.

Also, Racer X "Superheroes" CD is full of more killer Gilbert playing.

Of course Vai is the winner, but Gilbert had to be mentioned. :-)
