Oct 1, 2012The Story of Light is business as usual for Vai, a man who fights to avoid repeating himself and always tries to find new territory on an instrument that he has described as being "infinite" in its creative potential.
-
Oct 1, 2012You just need to listen and enjoy without reading too much into the material. That is easy to do here.
-
Oct 1, 2012Even at a well-established level and decades into his craft, Vai takes some surprising risks on The Story of Light, and the album almost always benefits from them.
-
Oct 1, 2012What The Story of Light shows in the end is that for every daring composition he gets right, there will be a few that are either too safe or not as well thought out.
