Vai ain't Eddie.
Vai is technically brilliant, no doubting.
But what people forget is how good a rhythm player Ed is. That's what gave CVH the snap and power.
No-one else can play those songs like him, it's not all about ability in solo's.
It's like when people do Metallica covers, they never sound right because very few people as a good rhythm players as Hetfield.The Power Of The Riff Compels MeComment

John Lennon had that ol' rhythm, too.

For thrash, Mustaine is my favorite with Hetfield in 2nd. But comparing Vai to Eddie? No way. I can't compare anyone to Eddie. For me, he is above all others as far as technique, style, and overall fun attitude.“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”Comment

There is more to playing than techniqueOriginally posted by Redballjets88

Soul
Feel
Rhythm
Vai ain't too good on the first two. Great hands, not a lot of soul
Eddie is unique, and no-one plays with more energy than him when he was at his bestThe Power Of The Riff Compels MeComment

no sorry but you cant use Hetfield in the same sentence as Mustaine,unless that sentence is Mustaine owns Hetfield on guitar.

hmmm...
steve will always be an underrated rhythm player.
like jimi, the histrionics tend to overshadow the fact
that the dude can FUCKING PLAY THE GUITAR.
the soul/feel argument holds no water with me either.
'for the love of god'
'tender surrender'
'viv woman'
'call it sleep'
and fuck yeah, 'damn good'.
seems to me a lot of the vai haterz have no idea
about guitar pluckin'.
thanx for teh bump, loons!
*edit* yep, i agree steve's tone generally sucks.Last edited by ashstralia; 06-01-2006, 07:27 AM.Comment

right on the mark. and Vai also has the "Fun attitude" look at tour footage of him, and listen to Flex-able if you do you will realize this guy is funny as hell from some of those songsR.I.P Van Halen 1978-1984

Mustaine is the man. But the thing about James was his attitude, presence, and "fatness" of some of his riffs. LEPER MESSIAH!!
Met Dave Ellefson a few months back. I make custom poker chips and traded him some for some picks. He gave me a couple Megadeth picks and a couple from his new band F5.
