Skyscraper Your Take

[Figs]

I just got Skyscraper from a friend. It's not bad. Does anyone know if "Damn Good" got a tiny bit of airplay when this came out? It seems a little familiar to me. Good song.

I'm a Skyscraper! I'm a Hoodoo Man!

Too Steve Vai-ish, but still good to listen too...good show as well.

One foot in the past....

One foot in the grave and one foot on a banana peel...

This nearly three year old thread prompted me to actually listen to the CD, which I hadn't done in ages.

Pretty much have the same reaction now that I did then, in that it was a much softer-edged follow up to EEAS than I would have liked, but then again you can't just remake the same album over and over and have a career worth listening to, either...

Have never liked Stand Up. Didn't then, don't now. The title track was interesting...Just Like Paradise was great single. Damn Good lived up to its name. The rest were just solid rockers, but nothing really exceptional...it felt like Vai was already heading towards the door when he recorded most of this...in terms of spin time, this and Diamond Dave get the least amount of spin time by me.

well good to know it made some of you listen to it again. for me it was the first dlr cd i bought because it was the only one available at the store. i thought it was interesting. eeas much better though and it did seem like vai was in another zone in this one
